USS ''New York'' (ACR-2/CA-2) was a United States Navy armored cruiser. The fourth Navy ship to be named in honor of the state of New York, she was later renamed ''Saratoga'' and then ''Rochester''. ==Design== ''New York'' was a fast armored cruiser with a powerful armament, but the belt armor was thin compared to the first generation of older, slow armored cruisers, which tended to have a thick but narrow-coverage (waterline) belt. The thin side armor was comparable to that of the groundbreaking French armored cruiser , but the French ship's armor covered a much greater area of the hull.〔Conway's 1860–1905, p.147, p.303〕〔Jane's 1905–1906, p.119, p.161〕 ''New York'' had a greater number of heavy guns than the French cruiser. The hull protection of both ships was superior to their main rival, the British ''Blake'' class, which were the largest cruisers at the time but had no side armor.〔Conway's 1860–1905, p.66〕 The British had switched from building armored cruisers to favor very large, first class protected cruisers, and stuck with this policy until after the ''Diadem'' class.
