America's First Dreadnought Shapes US Navy Policy
The Michigan launch marks a shift to a uniform main battery in US battleship design. President Roosevelt backs the one calibre plan, arguing improved maneuverability and economy. Delaware and North Dakota advance to 20 000 ton ships with ten 12 inch guns each, while Connecticut remains a 4 gun 12 inch layout.

Broadside fire is valued over fore and aft, and these ships mark a radical advance in American naval usage though further ships like them are not expected.
