As a USN submariner, who participated in the opening festivities of Iraqi Freedom, our subs are our FIRST line of attack.  As for the battleship issue, the only battleships still in ANY fleet, are the USS Wisconsin and USS Iowa, both in the reserve fleet, not on active duty.  For that matter, the Wisconsin has already been turned into a muesium in Norfolk, and the Iowa is searching for a home on the west coast to become a muesium.  The day of the big gun is gone.
Used them for missile strikes and insertion of recon troops im guessing?.
