Thanks.
The 1980s refit version (and a possible mid-50s missile conversion) will be presented as an own design at a later date, so, the USS Montana project is completed (except for my minor question about the radio antennaes for the 1948 versions wich can be fixed in a matter of seconds with a quick copy-paste).
All updated drawings can be found in the first page.

A true thing of beauty, BB, if not the ship(I'm no fan of american superstructure aesthetics ;) ), then most certanly the drawing!

I doubt that Admiral Beaty had anything to do with these ships.... Nah, just kidding.

Fear will keep the local systems in line. Fear of this Mod Color.

As for your eventual Montana missile conversion, I think you can use this, a look at how an Iowa would have looked after conversion:

Although the Montana has more room in the back of course :D
