Both hull modules have fictional AA suites. However, her AA should include four quadruple 1.1" guns and eight single 20mm Oerlikons. Permanent camouflage represents New Mexico as she appeared in January 1942, painted in Measure 12 (modified).Her original 1918 configuration is not represented, having been removed in a previous update. New Mexico is depicted in modernized condition.Though eight secondary batteries were located in extremely wet bow and stern positions and were soon removed, the rest of the ships' 5-inch (127 mm) guns were mounted in the superstructure, a great improvement over earlier U.S. One ship, the New Mexico, was fitted with turbo-electric propulsion. Hull design was also upgraded with a 'clipper' bow for better seakeeping and a sleeker look. The twelve-gun main battery of the preceding Pennsylvania class was retained, but with longer 14-inch (356 mm) 50 caliber guns in improved triple turrets. The New Mexico-class battleships of the United States Navy, all three of whose construction began in 1915, were improvements on the design introduced three years earlier with the Nevada class.
