Based on recent US naval infrastructure like the $2.8B Pearl Harbor dry dock and $1.8B Portsmouth upgrades, building a new shipyard for Arleigh Burke-class destroyers could cost $3-5B. For Panamax cargo ships, commercial yards (e.g., optimizations at $180M-$1B) suggest $1-2B each.

With $9B, you could fund 1-2 naval yards or 4-9 commercial ones, assuming no overruns typical in government projects.
