Some modifications were also made about the time of World War II to the Diamond Head defences, most notably the addition of Battery 407 in 1943 through the crater wall on the south side. Battery 407 was constructed in 1943-1944 and the original plan was to mount guns salvaged from the USS Arizona. The mounts for the guns were prepared, but the guns were never installed. None of the guns around Diamond Head Crater were ever fired during war. Battery 407 is currently used by the Hawaii National Guard.
