USS Nevada (BB-36)

USS Nevada (BB-36) was a battleship commissioned into the United States Navy in 1916. As the lead ship of her class, she introduced innovative features such as triple gun turrets and an "all-or-nothing" armor scheme. Nevada was present at Pearl Harbor during the Japanese attack on December 7, 1941, sustaining heavy damage but becoming the only battleship to get underway during the assault. After extensive repairs, she participated in major World War II operations, including the Normandy landings and the invasions of Iwo Jima and Okinawa, before being used as a target during atomic bomb tests at Bikini Atoll in 1946.
