The Montana-class battleships were planned as successors of the Iowa class for the United States Navy. Five were approved for construction during World War II, but changes in wartime building priorities resulted in their cancellation in favor of continuing production of Essex-class aircraft carriers and Iowa-class battleships before any Montana-class keels were laid. She was intended to be larger than the Iowa class, carry more guns and have better armor protection. They would also be slower and wider than Iowa class ships.
