Nebraska — U.S.A. Tech Tree Tier VIII Battleship.

When designing the North Carolina-class battleships, the F project was developed—a combination of a battleship and aircraft carrier. However, the proposed predesign didn't include a flight deck: The aircraft were supposed to be launched by catapults, and the air group was extremely small. If necessary, the project could be reworked into a full-fledged hybrid battleship-carrier with the hangar transferred to the stern and a flight deck created.

Pros

• High damage per squadron attack run
• High AA defense efficiency

Cons

• Shooting accurately over long ranges is challenging
• Susceptible to small caliber fire due to large superstructure
• Lacks rear-facing main battery armament
