I believe the old saying in the navy is “A ship can carry a boat, but a boat can’t carry a ship”.

Clearly, Arleigh Burkes are boats.

Maybe it's best read as not mutually exclusive. There seem to be ships that can also carry ships.

Some of those which carry boats / Are the same which carry ships

But that's a ship carrying a ship, or did I miss something?

I heard "boats go under the water and ships go on the water."
