USS Indianapolis CA-35

USS Indianapolis (CA-35) was a Portland-class heavy cruiser commissioned by the United States Navy in 1932. During World War II, she served as the flagship for Admiral Raymond Spruance and participated in major battles such as the Aleutian Islands campaign, the Battle of the Philippine Sea, and the bombardments of Iwo Jima and Okinawa. In July 1945, Indianapolis delivered critical components of the first atomic bomb to Tinian Island. Shortly after, on July 30, 1945, she was torpedoed and sunk by a Japanese submarine, leading to one of the worst naval disasters in U.S. history, with over 800 crew members lost.
