Believe it or not but the Iowa was not looted.  It has most of its stuff still on board. I figure because it was at the end of a generation of communication.  They started switching to sat comm (which it has also) so there was no need to pilfer for other ships.  Combine that with the draw down after the Cold War and the excess of ships there was no reason to take it apart.
