The last American battleship in service during World War II?
The last battleship served by the United States during World War II was actually the BB63 Missouri (Iowa-class battleship), not the BB64 Wisconsin (Iowa-class battleship). BB63 Missouri is two months behind BB64 Wisconsin, and the specific service time is1944 June11,BB64.

In the middle and late World War II, the status of battleships declined greatly. As the last battleship actually built in the United States, Iowa-class battleships were planned to be built at that time, namely Iowa (BB6 1), New Jersey (BB62), Missouri (BB63), Wisconsin (BB64), Illinois (BB65) and Kentucky.

Missouri is the last warship in service and the most important warship. Because the Japanese surrender ceremony was signed here, Missouri gained a different identity. It was revised many times later. Until the end of last century, it was still active in the ocean and participated in the Gulf War.
