Massachusetts — American Premium Tier VII Battleship.

A South Dakota-class battleship. Designed subject to treaty limitations, the ship had well-balanced characteristics in terms of armament, speed, and armor protection. By the end of World War II, the ship had a very powerful AA defense.

Massachusetts was first released as the final reward of the Big Mamie campaign, which took place from December 21st, 2020 to February 1st, 2021. The ship is now available in the store for 750 000 Global XP.
