The BB-62 USS New Jersey was the most decorated battleship in the history of the US Navy from 1943 to 1991. It was commissioned in 1943 as the second of a total of six Iowa-class battleships. However, the fifth and sixth ships, BB-65 Illinois and BB-66 Kentucky, were never completed and were ultimately scrapped. Like the other Iowa-class ships, the USS New Jersey had a displacement of 45,000 tons, a power output of 212,000 horsepower, and was armed with nine 16-inch (40.6 cm) guns, arranged in three triple turrets (two forward and one aft) with a maximum range of up to 40 km. The Iowa-class ships were 270.4 meters long and had a relatively narrow hull of 33 meters at its widest point, allowing them to easily pass through the Panama Canal.

After serving in major battles in the Pacific during World War II, the USS New Jersey was reactivated for both the Korean and Vietnam Wars. In 1982, the ship underwent a complete renovation, modernization, and was equipped with the latest weaponry technology. Following the Lebanon conflict, the New Jersey was also active during the Gulf War in 1991 and was finally decommissioned thereafter.
