USS Delaware (BB-28) was one of the 1910 battleships (the US was building two per year). Armed with ten 12-inch guns like the later Florida class, she and her sister were scrapped due to the Washington Naval Treaty.

New York (BB-34) and Texas (BB-35) were sister ships armed with ten 14-inch gun commissioned in 1914.
Texas is the only surviving dreadnought battleship in the world. All other battleship museums are WW2 era fast battleships or the pre-dreadnought Mikasa in Japan.
