U.S.S. Wyoming-Class Battleship '42

USS Wyoming was an American dreadnought completed before the First World War. In later service it became a training ship, and its Second World War employment differed markedly from the original battleship mission.

Wyoming entered service in 1912 with a twelve-gun 12-inch main battery. Treaty-era conversion removed part of its armament and changed its role toward training rather than battle-fleet employment. During the Second World War it supported gunnery instruction in the Chesapeake Bay area, earning associations with that training duty. Subsequent modifications further altered the weapons used for instruction. Its sister Arkansas retained a more conventional combat-battleship career, so photographs and armament figures for the two ships require careful separation by ship and year.
