Artists conception of what the Kentucky (BB-66) might have looked like had it been built as an anti-aircraft /guided missile battleship following the SCB 19 conversion which was under consideration for its sister ships Here the pic I was talking about. This came from www.Navsource.org

They wanted to remove main battery turret #3 and use the whole aft portion of the ships for the missile batteries.
