New battlewagons ?
There were plans for a larger class of BBs, called the Montana Class. They featured two turrets on front and rear, for a total of 12 sixteen inch guns.

There were to be 890 feet long at the waterline. 121 feet wide.

The Montana was to be BB-67, followed by the Ohio, the Maine, the New Hampshire and the Louisiana.
