USS Indiana (BB-58) was a South Dakota-class fast battleship built just before World War II, designed under strict treaty limits but armed with powerful 16-inch guns. These restrictions made the ships heavily armored but cramped, a problem worsened by added anti-aircraft weapons during the war.
Commissioned in April 1942, Indiana served almost entirely in the Pacific War. She first saw combat during the Guadalcanal campaign, then spent most of the war providing shore bombardment for amphibious landings and anti-aircraft defense for U.S. carrier task forces. She supported major operations at Tarawa, Kwajalein, Saipan, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa, where she helped shoot down kamikaze attackers.
In 1944, Indiana was damaged in a collision with USS Washington, forcing temporary repairs. Despite engine issues later in the war, she remained active until Japan’s surrender in August 1945, after which she assisted occupation forces.
Indiana returned to the United States, was placed in reserve, and remained inactive until being scrapped in 1963.
