DES MOINES heavy cruises (also called class for the less educated Salem) USS Des Moines CA-134 u $ s * Salem CA-139 * USS Newport News CA-148 can be said that with this kind climax and the end of development American cruiser arrived at the same time. Overall Overall, these vessels had much in common, a point of view outside their predecessors in the class of Oregon City – in the provision of weapons and fire control instruments. This class is the sum of the lessons learned in times of war and their boats were (with the exception of Alaska class!) The largest cruise ship ever built. That was about 4,000 tons heavier than the City of Oregon is mainly the introduction of fully automatic top 8 in the turret world. They were capable of firing rate 20 rounds per room minutes. Obviously, a larger amount of ammunition to be secured which means that the big magazines. An additional part of the additional travel is dedicated to improving the armor. For the first time in the heavy cruisers 3in / 50 has recently introduced a standard installation have been following the experiences of the war in the Pacific, where he was clear that the AA has been relatively ineffective against 2Omm Kamikaze aircraft, and even the 40 mm Bofors has not always been successful in preventing the aircraft to achieve its objective. To improve the performance of the AA 5in, ship Des Moines class were given two other control instruments 37 MK, while for the first time control of fire, the 8 " firing weapons was made by Mc 54. The 20-mm AA – if you installed very quickly withdrew. These catapults aircraft that had been installed have been removed and replaced by planes and helicopters. The ship was used according to the stowage of ships ship launch and recovery of what could be done by the crane. With the intention to provide fully automatic main weapon, the Des Moines class shows parallels with the class followed th e Worcester. In 1937, the Navy had begun to give priority to development Automatic twin completely triple and turrets, and around 1943 began planning such a cruise would have a main armament of three towers triple. At that time, development the 8in turrets capable of firing three times faster than hitherto available weapons, was a breakthrough in the technology of shooting. Cruising is made larger value heavy, as it was the release of its major disadvantage – a slower rate of fire – a key reason for the previous construction forced with 6-inch light cruisers they fired their guns more quickly. Interestingly, Oregon City class three twin towers of the new type, but the army has been trying to develop a new design Ship to receive these turrets Tun and the idea was abandoned in mid-1943. The class should be composed of at least eight glasses. Even after the end of the war in the Navy wanted to carry eight, but expectations of more opportunities and impact of guided weapons and cruise missiles is the future of conventional arms issues. The Korean War however, showed that long-range artillery was of great value in support of troop landings. In this respect, the last working-class ship, Newport News, was used effectively to support heavy fire on the coast of Vietnam. The importance of class has shown the 1980s when the Reagan administration reactivated Iowa-class battleships had no discussion about a possible alternative to reactivate Des Moines (CA-134) and Salem (CA-I39), which had been in the reserve. Because the search ships of the right weapons and adequate housing for the staff of the unit, and with enough deck area to accommodate the missile ship, "Des Moines class were the only serious candidates. Ultimately one study has shown that the Navy at a lower cost, it was more convenient to return to the two armored cruisers heavy. Only three ships of the class were completed Des Moines. The construction of nine ships was suspended at the end of the war.
