My niece was in the attic this week and found these. Built these back in the 70'S boxed them up in mid 80's and forgot about. One on the far right is the MIGHTY MO,middle one (I think is the NJ) the tiny one far left don't know.

Got to take the tour of the Missouri when she was on display back in the seventies up in Bremerton, Washington. She was a great ship. Saw the New Jersey firing off shore of Vietnam in support of we ground troops. Fire and smoke and a lot of hitting power.
The smaller one is a cruiser, but don't know the name or class.
Thanks for sharing.
