Overview
In the 1940s, several modernization and conversion projects for battleships were developed: from hybrid carriers to training artillery ships. One of them was the conversion of the last two Iowa-class battleships into carrier escort ships. The project envisaged mounting turrets with fast-firing 203 mm guns on the barbettes of the main caliber.
