USS Constitution (CC-5)

The keel of a Sclass|Lexington|battlecruiser, to have been named USS "Constitution" (CC-5), was laid down at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in September 1920. Her construction was suspended in February 1922 by the Washington Naval Treaty and she was formally canceled in August 1923, with her hull being scrapped on the building ways. "Constitution" was some 13.4 percent complete at the time of her cancellation. [cite web |url= http://www.history.navy.mil/photos/sh-usn/usnsh-c/cc5.htm |title= Online Library of Selected
