What were the names of us navy World War 2 cruisers?
There are too many USN cruisers to name; but they were divided into 3 catergories: 1. Heavy cruisers-8" guns 2. Light cruisers-6" guns 3. Large Cruisers-12" guns The Large Cruisers, such as the USS Alaska, were what Europeans liked to call "Battlecruisers" or "Pocket Battleships", but since the US was supplying EVERYONE during WWII with EVERYTHING...from rifles to tanks, from food to warships, from airplanes to artillery, the US Navy felt that it would be an insult to copy European terms when the US was supplying them with American equipment. Consequently, since these were US built cruisers, they would have American classifications; LARGE CRUISERS (not the British term Battlecruisers, and not the other foreign term Pocket Battleship). A sampling of some USN Heavy Cruisers: USS Astoria, USS Quincy, USS Vincinnes, USS Chicago; which were all sunk during the Guadalcanal sea battles. A few light cruisers: USS Juneau, USS Helena, USS Atlanta, also sunk in Guadalcanal sea fights. No large cruisers were sunk in action.

Name of ship with two hulls?
This term generally refers to "catamaran-type" hulls: two separate hull bodies joined together by a strong platform or deck. Catamarans can be as small as a one-person wooden craft with two dugout hulls (Pacific Islands) to seagoing vessels of 300 feet (91 meters) in length. Catamarans are very popular as recreational and cruising boats. Most are rigged with one or more masts and larger cruising cats have masts and engines. Most of today's large Tankers have double hulls, but that refers to their inner and outer hulls which greatly increase safety and lessen the chance of oil spills that damage the environment.
