Talk:Tennessee-class battleship

Distinction
One of the distinctive features of the Tennessee and Colorado classes was the fact that unlike the preceding classes, there were no casemates in the hull for secondary surface-to-surface guns. By WWII, all the preceding classes of US battleships had their hull casemate guns removed and the casemates plated over). Naaman Brown (talk) 00:39, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

power
It seems I was mistaken. The ships' propulsion systems were rated at what it is. Turbine power or electric motor power? Turbine power - 28600 shaft horsepower (Friedman). Еlectric motor power - 26800 shaft horsepower (Cracknell, p. 201)--Inctructor (talk) 11:51, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
