Whoever wrote this wouldn’t know a Battleship from crabbing skiff.
There are no more Battleships, except those on display as museum pieces at various places in the world.

FIFY. And to note: I'm not counting Mikasa in Japan as a "battleship" because she's a pre-dreadnought. Although it's admittedly a debatable point.
The last British Battleship was HMS Vanguard. Which was truly an excellent ship. Shame the Brits didn't keep her in mothballs; she could have been modernized and reactivated in the 1980s just like the Iowas were.
