Naval plan aims for 1925 goal and greater sea power
Admiral Badger argued a world league needs a strong navy with the US supplying much of the international police. He outlined a three year build program adding 16 battle cruisers and other ships to reach 19 by 1825, with American battleships of 48 000 ton displacement and 23 knot speed, and emphasized air power and minesweepers in future fleet operations.
