The crew complement of an Iowa-class battleship typically ranged from about 2,700 to 3,500 personnel, depending on the ship's operational status and mission requirements. This included officers, enlisted sailors, and various specialized roles such as gunners, engineers, and medical staff. The large crew size was necessary to operate the battleship's extensive armament and complex systems effectively.
The USS New Jersey (BB-62), a retired Iowa-class battleship, typically had a crew size of around 1,800 to 2,700 personnel during its active service, depending on the mission and time period. This included officers, enlisted sailors, and various support staff. Today, the ship is a museum and does not have an active crew, but it is maintained by a small number of staff and volunteers.

Battleships (old and Iowa-class) are no different than other large ships like Cruisers and Carriers when it comes to ranks and rates. The only difference is that they had more crew than most. Ship manning requirements are based on the ship's type and class, her systems, size, and tactical mission. While there's always a standard manning profile, it can change with any given mission, taking aboard more or leaving some in port as required. For a look at the old battleship ranks/rates, you can look at the Arizona Memorial casualty roster - it shows the names, ranks and rates of all sailors who were killed.
Over the years, naval destroyers have come in many sizes and with a variety of people needed to operate them (called the 'crew complement').As an example, the modern American Arleigh Burke ClassDestroyers, one of the largest and most powerful classes of destroyer in the world, have a crew compliment of 275 people.Generally, the more advanced the technology of a ship, the smaller crew it needs by comparison... A smaller crew per "amount of ship" you might say. For example:The Fletcher Class used during WWII had a crew of 329.The Arleigh Burke Class, with 275 crew are about 33% longer and weigh almost four times as much fully loaded.The next US destroyer class, the Zumwalt Class, are expected to be about 20% longer, 33% wider, and weigh perhaps 50% more than the Arleigh Burke Class, with a projected crew compliment of just 140 people.
The USS Excelsior (NCC-2000) is capable of supporting a crew compliment of approx 1200

Enterprise 1701-E (from the latest TNG movies) had a crew compliment of 885.
