relative to how she was initially tested for her service in WWII. This figure in itself comes from the

There is a new book out "Armor of the Iowa-Class

The official manning for the turret was 77 plus 6 powder passers and 12 in the magazines. (OP-769). The 77 figure includes many redundancies. There are duplicates on the sights.

In United States Navy terminology "BB" is used to denote a "Battleship", while "G" refers to a ship capable of carrying and launching guided missiles. "BBG" would therefore translate into "Guided
Missile Battleship", not "Battleship Battle Group". For this reason it is necessary to use three Bs: "BB"

I subscribe to the theory that the best infobox image is a "beauty shot", or an image that otherwise grabs the reader's attention in some way. The current one certainly does that, and the overall color is beautiful. The image you've suggested is a bit bland, and the background makes the overall ship
1917:
In my opinion, the current infobox image does not show the silhouette of the ship very well, and this image does it better. I know this image has been used by the article forever but I think the following would be a good replacement. Alternately, here's another image that I think is a good candidate

In response: There is inconsistency in this article in how it reports armor thicknesses. Many places in the Iowa class have backing plates (e.g. bulkheads). In some cases the article includes the thickness of the backing plate. In others it does not. I note that 5" Armor + 1" Backing plate Does not

Every authoritative source on the Iowa class battleships cites a standard displacement of 48,110 long tons; nowhere on any other site could I find an attribution for the (unsourced) figure of 47k and change. It's a minor difference, but one that to my knowledge isn't backed up by any authoritative

Most other ships don't have nine 16-inch guns either. The Iowa photo is n that article in the lead too, so we probably don't need it here in that position also. However, I really don't think the alternatives shown are good for the lead. I glanced through
Commons, but didn't see any I thought were

I don't think that even that index is actually accurate for warships since 1.2 billion is roughly the cost of a single 9,000 ton Burke-class cruiser. An Iowa is roughly 5 times bigger and its armor and guns cannot be built by any facility in the world as they were all retired as unneeded more than

Another armor inconsistency is that the article states the belt armor tapers to 1.62". The mill size of the plates (about 3/8" oversize) tapered to 1.62." When the bottom was cut off, the taper was to greater than 1.62." But the shipyard tapered the bottom 9 inches to 1". So in reality, the plates

This statement is misleading: "Over the magazines, the splinter deck is replaced by a 1-inch (25 mm) STS third deck that separates the magazine from the main armored deck." There is quite a bit of overlap between the splinter deck and the 1-inch areas of the third deck. It's not correct to say the

The text implies the rotating turret armor extends below the barbette which is incorrect. From the shelf plate to the plan plate, the rotating turret wall is 7/8" high tensile steel. The pan plate rests on the roller bearing track. The circular bulkhead around the pan plate even has openings. So

All three turrets extend to the Second
Platform. (Plan 7201ZN), The revolving parts of the turrets are effectively identical down to the lower projectile flat. Below that, length of the central column and the powder hoist paths are different to accommodate the differences in heights between the

For the life of me, I can't find this 39 knot figure. The 35.6 knot figure is from a shake-down cruise of USS New Jersey, after a recent refit for her service in the
Vietnam War. It is also worth noting that the ship's armament was significantly modified prior to her service in the Vietnam War
1798:
While I am at it, the number of 20mm mounts was not the same among the Iowa class. The New Jersey had 49x20mm mounts (8 of which were ultimately twin). Some of the other Iowa class wedged in more mounts.IIRC, the
Missouri crammed 3 mounts at the 02 level FR 120 in the space designed for 2.

III. Incorrectly states "The guns are 66 feet (20 m) long (50 times their 16-inch bore, or 50 calibers from breechface to muzzle)." The guns are actually 816" (68') from breechface to muzzle. BuOrd plan 227539. The caliber measurement does not include 16" allocated to the breech.
2124:
Another issue I noticed is that the article refers to the Iowa-class as having "skegs." The supports for the inboard propellers are decidedly not skegs. The plans refer to them as "twin keels" and they are integral to the hull shape, not extensions from the hull as in a skeg.
2121:
example, the book shows the belt tapers to one-inch, not 1.62" as claimed in this article. If you look at the detailed diagrams in the book, it is clear that the belt would not fit if it did not taper to one-inch. I see this issue has been raised in this discussion before.
1787:
The shape of the fixed part varies considerably among the turrets and consequently the ammunition storage in the outer ring is different and turret no. 2 has an additional projectile storage level that compensates for its significantly reduced storage in the upper flat.
