11. “Defiant” and “Trump class” don’t follow the normal Navy naming philosophy at all. “Defiant” is more how the Brits name their warships (Repulse, Vanguard, Warspite, Valiant, Revenge and the class name is also always the name of the lead ship. As a President Trump would have an aircraft carrier named after him (Jimmy Carter is the exception because he was a former submariner and JC wanted it that way).
