Overview
In the late 1930s, the US Navy returned to the idea of a battleship to support fast aircraft carriers and protect them from heavy and battlecruisers. The lifting of international restrictions allowed the creation of a ship with good protection and powerful armament. USS Iowa played an active role in the Pacific theater of operations. In 2012, the ship took its place in permanent mooring in San Pedro, California, as a museum ship.
