USAN BB Iowa

Roaring off the line is the Aerial Navy's latest introduction, the fast battleship Iowa in all of its glory in TerraTech! Don't be fooled however, this isn't your average airship. Being a mainline fighting vessel, the Iowa is equipped to deal with any baddies you might encounter, and deal with them it does. Your foes will find themselves under constant barrages of battleship cannons and cruise missiles as they fruitlessly attempt to delay the inevitable. Being covered by an excellent suite of weapons on all angles, the Iowa is extremely well armed, and is one of the best breakthrough vessels you will find on the workshop.
However, don't let the size get the better of you. Being a fast battleship, a bit of protection has been sacrificed for great improvements in speed. The Iowa is capable of the same blistering 80+ mph dash speed as the Burke despite being several times larger. Rough terrain is no contest for the Iowa either, floating at 95 feet allows the captain to navigate any type of terrain, even vertical scaling is possible thanks to the extreme power of the engines!
Offensively, the Iowa is in a class of its own. 12 forward facing battleship cannons and 22 cruise missiles will annihilate any poor enemy that was unlucky enough to stare down this mighty battleship. The Iowa is also very well protected when it comes to defense, with plenty of shield/repair bubbles and enough batteries to power them for several days on a single charge!
Same as the Burke, the Iowa also takes advantage of the ability to elevate and depress the entire ship by means of pitch gyro adjustment if the in-game pitch control feature simply isn't enough. Permanent adjustment of elevation is also easily controlled, as is giving power to the defensive bubbles, by using the all in one control system located at the rear of the battleship for easy access while you fly.
The Iowa, Burke, and the Pyotr Velikiy can now be spawned without the R&D package as well, due to the advancement of many crucial components to their respective factions. While it is expensive (~$6.5M BB) this invaluable asset is a must have for anybody's fleet, and makes a great flagship should it be spawned in campaign! This bruiser is ALL bark, ALL bite, and she's all ready to go, so enjoy your new Iowa as you take on anything this game'll throw at you!
