That would depend on what your specific question is. It would also depend on the era you are asking about. If you are talking in terms of World War II battleships, those would be very different from our modern battleships. Another thing to consider is what you mean in terms of best. Are you interested in the best one to tour? Are you interested in the best one in terms of features and what you can see? Are you interested in terms of military strength? You would have to narrow it on down. Even then, there would be disagreements about which one is truly the best.
I think that this is an impossible question to answer. Picking the "best" battleship is akin to Picking the best car or the best boat. Too many variables. What is the mission? Who is the enemy? What theater of engagement? What Era? I think that there is a ship, tank, vehicle, and soldier for every conceivable mission and scenario. Only thing that remains is to pick one.
It's hard to say what's the best. So many people have different likes and dislikes. What I can speak to is the fact me and my family had a great time at the North Carolina.
The USS Missouri!!!!
The Showboat of course!
