As far as I know there was nothing effed up about the North Carolina and South Dakota classes which preceded the Iowas. They were excellent, fast carrier escorts unlike the older BBs at Pearl.

If they were not good BB's then the montana class may have been built, instead before the keel's were even laid, the brass decided on building more Essex class carriers.
