President Truman's transfer from the destroyer USS Renshaw to the battleship Missouri. You can really see the size difference between these ships. USS Renshaw served in WW2, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. The Battleship Missouri is known for being the last battleship to be built for the US Navy. Although her sister-ship, USS Wisconsin, had a higher hull number (BB-64), she was completed before Missouri. Two more lowa-class battleships, as well as the entire Montana class, were cancelled. The Montana-class battleships were expected to be slower and bigger, with better armor and superior firepower. During World War II, five were planned for construction, but priorities shifted to the Essex-class aircraft carrier. No Montana-class keels were laid, and Missouri ended up being the last battleship ever completed for the US Navy. Like other vessels of the US Navy, Missouri has played a role in several productions. One of her most prominent appearances was in Battleship, the 2012 sci-fi film based on the popular board game. Though she hasn't sailed under her own steam since 1992, Missouri was depicted as out to sea for the movie. To accomplish this, three tugboats were used to make it look like she was sailing on her own. Along with Battleship, the Mighty Mo appeared in 1992's Under Siege and served as the filming location for Cher's "If I Could Turn Back Time" music video. After its release, the Navy had a few regrets about approving the music video.
