Calculation the firepower to the Nelson class battleships.
These ships were very well armed by the end of the war. In 1945, HMS Nelson was armed with:
6x 4.7" Anti-Aircraft guns (Six Single Mounts)
16x 40mm Bofors (Four Quad Mounts)
48x Pom-Poms (Six Octuple Mounts)
65x 20mm Oerlikon (Single Mounts)
A total of 135 anti-aircraft guns. By a total number of barrels, that is more than the Iowa class at 129!
