Looks appropriate for the USS Iowa, or any of the 4 Iowa
class ships.

Looks like one to me too. That office looks like the ship's administrative office. I
suspect that if they are the last left to defend the ship it is game over.
They are SK's, storekeepers. At first glance I thought it was a shore installation, I
have a hard time conceiving of that much room on board a ship.
And yes, it very much would be "game over."
