A tad bit excessive if you ask me, the Japanese will be crapping their pants at the amount of dakka coming down range at themUSS Wyoming
Plus at this point she is doing more important work, ie training AA gunners. Also she doesn't have any armor it was removed when she was made a gunnery training shipA tad bit excessive if you ask me, the Japanese will be crapping their pants at the amount of dakka coming down range at them

In looking more, at the USS Richmond, she would be an excellent choice for this mission she was an early major refit with AAA. Her 8x1x 3"/50cal, 1.1", and.50 caliber, were removed at a refit at Mare Island, and replaced with 1x3"/50, 6x2 40mm Bofors, and 12 x 1x20mm Oerlikan
What was the timeline on Richmond arriving at Chriatmas? In OTL, she got her refit in spring 1942, making her one of the earlier ships to get a full AAA refit. I always wondered what would have happened if prewar the 8 x3"/50 cal, had been replaced by 4 x5" /25 cal., on the Omahas.USS Richmond and HMS Enterprise are the patrol cruisers down at Port C and Christmas Island right now.

That said, it's a shame that Warspite isn't available to drop 15-inch presents on them as well.
