Wyoming | Tier 4 | Battleship

In 1908, a discussion arose within the U.S. Navy regarding the possibility of transitioning to a larger caliber for battleship guns, inspired by the British example. To save time on infrastructure conversion and avoid additional design efforts, a decision was made to keep the main caliber of battleships under construction at 305 mm while increasing the number of guns to 12. Upon entering service, USS Wyoming assumed the flagship role for the Atlantic Fleet and actively took part in the occupation of Veracruz. During World War I, the battleship reinforced the British fleet by relocating to Scapa Flow. She then escorted convoys and conducted patrols in the North Sea.
