  • Warship Guide - USS Nevada BB 36
    USS Nevada ushered in the 2nd generation of US battleship design, or the standard type battleship, incorporating revolutionary new features that became standard on most of the US battleships that followed her. Nevada was the only battleship to get underway during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and her actions were a bright spot in an otherwise dismal morning for the United States Navy. After recovering from her damage, her guns blasted away enemy coastal defenses in France before she moved on to the Pacific. Fire from her guns was deadly accurate and she was very dependable in the fire support role. She earned 7 battle stars for her efforts in both Oceans during the 2nd World War.

    This has to be the most amazingly articulate, fluent, well organized commentary including reams of technical information on record. It is astounding how much of this information is coherently conveyed without interruption for so long. My only complaint is that the narrator characterized Japan's Pearl Harbor attack as an "unprovoked surprise attack." Neither is true. Other than that flaw, this presentation is an absolute masterpiece.

      We didn't attack the Japanese first so yes, it was unprovoked. and it was absolutely a surprise. Everyone at Pearl Harbor was caught flatfooted.

      Texas was not the same class as Nevada. Texas's sister ship was New York (BB-34).
