Jacksonville

A powerful light cruiser with fifteen 152 mm dual-purpose guns—this project is a hypothetical development of the Worcester class. In the early 1940s, the U.S. developed projects for ships capable of fighting high-altitude aircraft. Various armament options were considered, including 152 mm dual-purpose guns housed in triple-gun turrets, but they never saw the light of day.
