I'm trying to go outside my area of expertise and make questions about stuff I don't know much about and don't find interesting in most cases. I hope I inspire someone else to think outside the box. (Be kind)

We have discussed battleships beeing popular later in history, post the development of carriers. My thought on the subject, they aren't that useful on the high seas against carriers. But what about a US fleet of big gun battleships of similar size of a carrier, possibly with the same propulsion and so on (might make economic sence), a decent anti-aircraft and anti sub system as well as very thick armour designated to go in close and attack enemy harbours?
