Linkors of the Nevada type. The first superdreadnows of the American fleet

On December 7, 1941, more than three hundred and fifty Japanese aircraft attacked the base of the Pacific Fleet of the United States Pearl Harbor. As a result of this attack, 4 American battleships were destroyed, and 4 more were damaged ...
Among these ships there were two first American superdreadnots - the battleships of the "Nevada" and "Oklahoma". Built in 1910-1916, these ships managed to participate in the First World War, and in the interwar period a number of modernizations were held that increased their combat power, which, however, did not help them defend themselves from Japanese raid - the nine torpedoes of Oklahoma turned over, Taking with them to the bottom of 395 sailors. “Nevada” was more lucky - heavily damaged, he jumped ashore, then to undergo repairs and modernization and take an active part in the Second World War, including covering the landing of the allied troops in Normandy.
The book proposed is a detailed study on the design, construction and combat service of the first superdreadnows of the American fleet
