From Dusty Rhodes - With her sister Kentucky, these were the first US BBs to make extensive use of electrical auxiliary systems. Superposition of the 13- and 8-inch turrets was problematic and vigorously debated. Nonetheless, these ships were powerfully gunned by international standards of the day. She was rebuilt as a crane ship in 1920 and provided valuable service in that role until 1956. (Crane parts and mods not included in this kit.)
