What was the name of the first battleship?
The FIRST steel US battleship classified as a battleship was the USS Texas, commissioned in 1895. However, her sister the USS Maine which blew up in Cuba in 1898, which started the Spanish-American War in 1898 was commissioned the same year but was classified as an Armored Cruiser.
