Big Flaws in the Boat. The Navy doesn't like to talk about.
Using one for a SINKEX drill would be quite interesting as both types' survivability has long been in question, especially due to the widespread use of aluminum in their construction and their overall lower design standards than their more hardy dock mates. Seeing what real weaponry does to either of the designs could be beneficial

I thought the Belknap fire already proved the hazard of using aluminum in ship construction.
