To maintain our standard battleship fleet (non-BBG/BBGN variant battleships), seven more Iowa-class battleships and two Montana-class ships are to be built by the end of 2015. Units 81 through 87 will be Iowas, while 88 and 89 will be Montanas.

Additional Nevada and Maine-class ships, as well as the recommissioning of the remaining South Dakotas, are questionable.
