Strasbourg — French special premium Tier VII battleship.
The second Dunkerque-class battlecruiser featured an improved armor layout, including a thicker armor belt. At the beginning of World War II, Strasbourg participated in patrol and escort operations before being sent to Mers-el-Kébir. After the capitulation of France, the British Navy attacked the French ships as part of Operation Catapult. Strasbourg managed to escape the harbor and arrive at Toulon.

Player Opinion
Pros:
- Better main battery reload speed and accuracy compared to sister ship Dunkerque
- Longer secondary battery range compared to sister ship Dunkerque
- Good main battery traverse speed
- Excellent AP/HE shell velocity
- All-forward main battery makes Strasbourg durable against 356mm and lower gun calibers when bow-in
- Good ship speed, decent turn radius and rudder shift
- Access to the Main Battery Reload Booster consumable
Cons:
- Same AP/HE performance (damage, penetration) as sister ship Dunkerque, a tier higher. She may struggle to deal damage against enemy battleships, even if they show almost all of their broadside, especially at a larger distance.
- Small healthpool for a Tier 7 battleship
- Armor profile is weak, expect to take extensive damage from HE spam and large caliber overmatches
- Very weak AA suite, vulnerable to plane attacks
- The Main Battery Reload Booster has an extremely long cooldown
- Poor concealment
Research
As a premium ship, Strasbourg doesn't have any upgrades to research.
