4 Billion does seem excessive .... Trump is more than likely positioning to negotiate the same project and for a lower cost.

The unit cost of a Gerqald Ford class aircraft carrier is $13 billion. The Nimitz-class cost $4.5 billion.

A $13 billion U.S. aircraft carrier is about to hit the open seas. It’s the USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78), the most expensive and most advanced warship ever built.

The Naval behemoth can house more than 4,500 people and weighs 90,000 tons. The CVN-78 is the lead ship in the Ford class of aircraft carriers, replacing some of the U.S. Navy’s existing Nimitz-class carriers.
