Top Warships from Around the World, Excluding the US.

US naval commanders are struggling to keep up with China's expanding fleet of warships, which is already the world's largest. Experts suggest that the US could close the gap by buying ships from allies South Korea and Japan, who are building some of the highest spec and affordable naval hardware on the oceans. However, US law currently prevents the Navy from buying foreign-built ships or building its own ships in foreign countries due to security concerns and a desire to protect America's shipbuilding industry.
