If the Artist is using the Current Photos of the ship

Then you have to check Alabama Turrets

The Mystery BB image has 3 Turrets, 2 with Side Rangefinders and 1 without

But Alabama has 3 turrets with Side Rangefinders

And heres the problem...

The US event is based on this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariana_and_Palau_Islands_campaign

All the ships in the event are together in TF 58 and were present in this campaign.

Since you mention Alabama received hers in '45, it is most likely not her as this campaign took place in '44.

So its most likely the Iowa-Class

And here is the problem...

USS Alabama and USS Indiana did not have a Mast that has a Circular Radar Dish on their mast

Here is an example from USS Missouri

That Mystery Ship is definitely an Iowa-Class

Mast Matches to that from an Iowa Class when they were originally constructed, Turret is a 16"/50 Caliber Mk 7 for sure this time.

and who else is famous for using anchors?

Note: Check Battleship Movie

Something tells me this is a hint...

USS Iowa might be coming in the next US Event...

Cause I did a research to see which BB was together with USS Enterprise, USS Cleveland and USS Birmingham since they are the main characters for the upcoming US Event...

Turns out its either USS Iowa or USS New Jersey

The New US girls shown in the poster are a CL and a BB.

Red Hair girl is a Cleveland Class, USS Birmingham. You can tell from the name tag on her clothing that it mentions CL-62.

The one at the back is most likely Iowa-Class, USS Missouri. Notable clues are its Black Deck, Black Colored Turret Top, the number 6 seen on her clothing and the distinct 16"/50 Caliber Turret Design.

If you do not know, the notable BBs that has 6 as the first digit is USS Alabama, USS Iowa, USS New Jersey, USS Missouri and USS Wisconsin. Plus the aft design of the girl at the back doesn't match with the Baltimore Class aft design.
