Dmitri Donskoi — Soviet Tier IX cruiser.

In 1943, the Navy's Main Staff ordered the design of a light cruiser (Project 65) intended to escort battleships and heavy cruisers. The hull of the 68-bis project cruiser was used as its basis. In 1946, 40 variants of Project 65 were developed, including some with 180 mm main guns. The ship's displacement increased to 19,000 tons. Eventually, it was decided to abandon further development of the project and keep the focus on completing the 68-bis ships.

Player Opinion

Performance

A reliable cruiser in skilled hands, the Dmitri Donskoi or "Dima" can be said as the analogous counterpart for the US cruiser of the same tier the Baltimore, albeit having different values than her US counterpart. If anything, the cruiser has a surprising AA suite aboard as well as trading gun caliber from the standard 8 inch guns normally seen on destroyers to the 7.1 inch guns that was mounted on the Kirov at first. As an "escort cruiser", she is ideal for screening the carriers and battleships from aerial assaults as well as providing a second line of fire within the battle line as her range can permit her to do so. However despite her potency and effectiveness, be constantly vigilant and mobile as the ship absolutely can NOT survive a beating nor can it hide if it is concentrated upon. Work as a support cruiser and you will see surprising results.

Pros:

  • Improved 7.1 inch guns from her tier 5 predecessor Kirov
  • Fast despite her appearance
  • Powerful AA suite, potentially surpassing her US counterpart Baltimore in terms of this
  • Impressive gun range
  • Good rudder shift
  • Friendly ergonomics
  • Surprisingly durable for a cruiser

Cons:

  • High detection range for a cruiser; it is equivalent to a battleship
  • The ship, despite being fairly durable, cannot take excess punishment
  • Cannot effectively join fast striking cruiser groups due to her detection compared to her colleagues the Roon and Baltimore

Research

If you are comfortable with the range with your rather high detection range, research hull B to improve your ship's HP and AA suite then hull C and then the GFCS, or you can acquire hull B, then gun range then hull C.
