USS Kentucky
History
the USS Kentucky was an Iowa class battleship built for the US Navy, but never finished. As WW2 ended, the need for new battleships vanished and she sat unfinished with delays in building. Ultimately seeing the scrapyards in 1958.
One of her plans was to use missiles as her main weapon, but this plan never came to fruition.

Rant
Howdy, its me again. Its been so long, i didn't even remember when i finished this. I never really got around to upload this because i also made a video documenting this build from start to finish. Which will come sometime after this post, the video really shows what features i planned and what i scraped because it ended up not working.
i had been busy with real life work for the past 2 weeks, and im now just starting to find room to wiggle in Simple Planes.

@Nitsu ye
@TheHaggisBasher so basically like her completed as a conventional BB ??
@Nitsu nolike the bit where it says it was never finished due to ww2 ending so im guessing you made it to look like the irl model of it and not the complete ship (eg 1 turret nothing at the front) get what i mean
@TheHaggisBasher this is the finished version, unless.......
You know what im thinking
i know its not supposed to be finished but could we have one that is finished i love the ship
@Kaivance sorry about that, it took me some time to load it, but not as long as yours. Its a large build.
Uh when I Try to play this on android and play with it I got stuck in the loading level for 5 or 10 minutes
@BlinIndustry thank you for the compliment
Underated craft, love it
