Adding this this discussion with an idea from another: "The last modernization plan of the Iowas"Had these cruisers been reactivated in 1990's, was there any prospect of adding VLS and retaining all three eight-inch turrets? I understand that would have been top-weight issues. However, sacrificing perhaps all of the 5-inch guns might have been a means of making room and weight allowances for VLS. I welcome any thoughts.
