>the battleship Missouri (BB-64) or the Wisconsin (BB-64).
How thick is the armor of the ship? (at the most thick point) Once I was
told that it is about 40 inches of concrete thick.
[mod.note: According to Siegfried Breyer, _Battleships and Battlecruiser
1905-1970_, the Iowa class has the thickest armor on the conning tower;
445mm. The main armored belt is 310mm thick. Turret faces are 432mm.
