The lead and namesake ship of the Iowa-class battleships of the United States Navy. It has had a long service fighting in both the Pacific and Atlantic Theaters of World War II as well as the Korean War. It is currently docked at the Port of Los Angeles as a museum ship.

This tag will be used for depictions of the ship itself as well as her [[Kantai Collection]]-style fan personifications, especially now that an [[iowa (kancolle)|official version of her]] appears in that game.
