ID of the new battleship?
« on: March 28, 2017, 04:53:27 AM »
Is there a name on the stern, or numbers on the bow?  Just wondering; I understand its from the Iowa-class, but is it the Iowa?  Could be the New Jersey, the Missouri, or the Wisconsin.

I don't think it is modeled after a specific battleship. Just like the CV's aren't modeled after a specific carrier, just generic. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

The CVs used to have 15 painted on the forward flight deck.  That's USS Randolph.
