Indianapolis — USA · Tier VII · Cruiser

USS Indianapolis, the second cruiser of the Portland class, participated in the New Guinea campaign and the Aleutian Islands campaign during World War II. Later, the ship participated in various landings, including those on Kwajalein, Saipan, and the Mariana and Palau Islands. She also provided cover for raids on Tokyo and took part in the assault landings on Iwo Jima and Okinawa. Tragically, on July 30, 1945, the ship was struck by two torpedoes from a Japanese submarine and sank rapidly. The surviving crew spent several days in the water, even enduring shark attacks. Over the course of World War II, the ship was awarded 10 battle stars.
