>…It's interesting that a drone boat was able to rescue the crew of a helicopter, but I think it's even more interesting that a $20,000 Iranian drone was able to knock a AH-64 Apache attack helicopter out of the air which cost between 52 and 100 million dollars depending on how many bells and whistles it had. This should make anybody think twice before they decide to build a huge "Trump class" battleship.

How do we know it is huge or how much it costs?  It might be that battleship is the size of a city bus and costs less than the missile sent against it, but emits a radar signature that looks like a traditional battleship.
