A rather old Tootsietoy battleship. I believe the company started around 1920 and evolved into Tootsietoy. Thesen were made out of pig iron I believe. Not quite the quality of metal used now for diecast vehicles.
The battleship seems to be a New Mexico class battleship. That was one of three classes of battleships with 4 triple 14" gun turrets. I think a broadside was about 19,000 lbs. That was respectful from WWI through WWII.
This model is a bit over 6". The actual ships did not have red paint.
It has wheels to roll across the floor.
