History of the Battleship USS Montana BB-67

The Montana-class battleships were a visionary project of the United States Navy, meant as a response to the development of battleships by other powers during World War II. Their construction was planned after the launch of the famous Iowa-class ships, and the USS Montana BB-67 was to be the largest, most heavily armed, and best-armored battleship in the history of the US Navy. In reality, however, none of the five planned Montana-class battleships were completed – the project was cancelled in 1943 when aircraft carriers and more mobile units became the priority. Nevertheless, USS Montana BB-67 endures to this day as a symbol of America's maritime power and the engineering ambition of that era.
