Cambridge — USA · Tier IX · Cruiser

A cruiser armed with 305 mm main battery guns, representing a hypothetical embodiment of the preliminary design "Heavy Cruiser Study. Scheme 3" (1940), incorporated into the hull of an Oregon City-class ship. By the end of World War II, USS Cambridge was still in the early stages of construction, making her a suitable platform for experiments with weaponry typical of large cruisers.
