Iowa — American Tech Tree Tier VII Battleship.

One of the most powerful battleships of World War II. The ship was designed for escorting attack carrier forces. She surpassed the speed of all battleships in the world. The battleship's survivability was significantly improved owing to a novel and powerful toerpedo protection system and a fundamentally different armor protection system featuring an internal armor belt.
