Could America or Germany match a 28-knot Queen Elizabeth?

Could the United States or Germany have built an equivalent to a 28-knot Queen Elizabeth in 1913?

The United States had little doctrinal reason to match the speed, while Germany would have faced an unaffordable engineering and funding burden.

American Standard-type thinking kept the battle fleet together as a slow, heavily armed and armored unit, so British speed was not the main measure Congress cared about. Germany faced a different constraint: matching the ship would require a much more expensive design while naval spending already competed with the Army. The same British capability therefore produced different reactions in the two rival navies. Machinery performance depended on doctrine and national budgeting as well as technical competence.
