Gunboats Vs Destroyers or crusiers

[SevereTrinity]

In lieu of the above:

If we bring up real life, every man and their dog would own a freighting company, I would be a Navy Vice Admiral, commies would be living in Switzerland, Japanese cars would be tiny and maneuverable as a motorbike, and we would have Jes banning people going over the speed limit.

'Nough said about that argument, next please?

You cannot bring up RL as an argument.

Fighters/Bombers would be airplanes, yus? That would mean we have flying aircraft carriers, dreadnoughts, and everything else.

And for the record Jes = Fellow Hoodlum's real name.
