"The Montana -class of battleships could have been the largest, best protected, and most heavily armed U.S. warships to ever head to sea. Designed to rival the Imperial Japanese Navy's Yamato- class battleship in terms of sheer tonnage, the project was canceled due to the other wartime priorities. "
