English: The outboard profile and plan view of the battleship Oregon (BB-03). This 1893 drawing of the Oregon illustrates the considerable amount of ordnance built into this relatively small battleship. Thirteen inch guns are in the centerline turrets, with pairs of 8-inch intermediate guns in four wing turrets. A centerline bridge connects the fore and after bridge, and lateral skids project outboard form the centerline bridge to accommodate the ship's boats and arcs of fire for her guns.
USS Oregon (BB-3) was a pre-Dreadnought Indiana-class battleship of the United States Navy. Built by Union Iron Works of San Francisco, California, she was launched 26 October 1893.
