Statistics of the Iowa class battleships. Armor: 12.2 inch belt, 6 inch deck, 11.6-17.3 inch barbettes, 2.5-17.3 inch turrets, 17.3 inch CT. Probably the finest battleships of all time. The second pair of ships had been planned as Montana class ships, but they were changed to Iowas to speed production. Reactivated for Korean War service in WWII configuration. The class was nearly discarded in 1974. Built by Philadelphia Navy Yard.
WASHINGTON â The Clinton administration is about to do what no enemy of the United States was ever able to do: Eliminate all the battleships in the U.S. fleet. There are only four of them left--the Missouri, Wisconsin, Iowa and New Jersey--all launched during World War II, when the Navy had a total of 23 battleships. The Missouri was the site of the Japanese signing of the surrender that ended World War II.
