USS Missouri
Probably the most famous of the Iowa-class battleships, and maybe even the most famous battleship in the world, USS Missouri is an American icon. She fought in WWII, the Korean war, and the Gulf war. From her bulbous bow to her huge 16"/50 caliber mark 7 guns, she has an impressive silhouette. With a top speed of 33 knots (around 40 MPH), she (along with her sister ships) is the fastest battleship in the world. Her guns, nicknamed the Long Nines, weigh 239,000 pounds (without the breech) up to 267,900 pounds (with breech), and fired 2,700 pound 16" shells. She still exists today, in the form of a museum ship in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
