Operation Neptune, the naval component of the D-Day invasion during World War II, involved several battleships, most notably the USS Texas and the HMS Warspite. These battleships provided critical naval gunfire support to Allied forces landing on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944. Their heavy artillery played a key role in targeting German defenses and aiding the success of the landings. Other warships, including cruisers and destroyers, also participated to ensure naval superiority during the operation.
