Battleships are obsolete because of the use of missles. In today's navy, any vessel can be fitted with cruise missles capable of sending accurate strikes at long distances. An attacker can easily dispatch such a vessel with the push of a button, making it difficult to protect such a large vessel and making it a high value target with huge loss of life.
