Summary
| Description |
English: Located in the center of the U.S.S. New Jersey's bridge, the Conning Tower, AKA "battle conn", contained the equipment required to "conn" the ship. This includes a ship's wheel, the ship's RPM indicator, engine telegraphs, and communications gear. A mannequin is visible in this photo. A portion of a small viewing port is visible at the back of the space. The outer shell of the Conning Tower consists of 17 inches of solid steel armor, designed to resist the impact of a 1-ton shell. The door for this entrance (not shown) weighs more than a ton.
Seen at the Battleship New Jersey, on the Delaware River in Camden, New Jersey. |
