My current Iowa class: 9 x 16" Main guns, 30 x 8" Secondary guns, 160 x 40mm Bofors AA, 4 x 20mm Oerlikon AA, 30 Mk 14 torpedoes.

I'm going to triple stack the main batteries giving me 27 16" guns, then I will trade out the aircraft launchers for 2 14" triple mounts, and another 14" triple mount in front.

I will gladly put it head to head with that monstrosity and see what comes out on top

That ship 1 on 1 vs a Gato... I think you're right merc, one fleet boat could take that thing down, plus it presents such a huge target you CAN'T miss
