flag warship West Virginia '44: Tier VII American Battleship 1923

USS West Virginia sank as a result of the attack on Pearl Harbor. In 1942, the ship was re-floated and extensively rebuilt. She received bulges, reinforced decks, a new superstructure, radar, and a new dual-purpose main battery. She returned to service in the Pacific in time for the start of the Battle of Leyte. During the battle, West Virginia delivered several successful hits on battleship Yamashiro and cruiser Mogami. In 1945, the ship took part in the Battle of Iwo Jima and in the landings on Okinawa. In the course of the war, West Virginia was awarded five battle stars.
