promo

Arizona — American promo premium Tier VI battleship.

A U.S. Navy battleship with a conventional layout, with two turrets forward and two aft and her armor distributed according to the "all or nothing" concept. She was designed to engage enemy ships at long range. By the outbreak of World War II, the ship received more powerful torpedo protection, which slightly reduced her maneuverability.

USS Arizona was destroyed during the 7 December 1941 sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii with heavy loss of life. Her remains can be seen today at the USS Arizona Memorial in Pearl Harbor.

Arizona first went on sale on 4 July 2016 on the NA servers, and on 9 July 2016 on the EU servers.

Player Opinion

Performance

Arizona is a Tier VI American battleship. It is similar to other mid-tier US battleships in that it moves at 21 kts and has decent armor. However, it differs from her tech tree counterpart in that her guns have a higher sigma value, making her salvo patterns tighter, and has worse rudder shift and AA. Her guns are great for shooting cruisers and destroyers, but at only 45 calibers long, their penetration starts to become inadequate as battleships start mounting 16-inch guns (and become armored against them), meaning you may have to switch to HE at longer ranges to deal damage and set fires. Her slower rudder shift isn't really noticeable, but combined with the lack of AA, makes her vulnerable to enemy carriers; it's a good idea to seek out anti-aircraft cruiser escorts if there are carriers in the battle, as well as paying careful attention to where enemy planes are at all times.

LittleWhiteMouse's Premium Ship Review: Arizona from the NA forums

Pros:

HP Pool second only to Mutsu's for its tier.
Good dispersion, able to reliably hit ships at range.
Considerably better armor than New Mexico.
Decent range.

Cons:

Worse AA and slower shells, reload and rudder shift than New Mexico.
Typically low USN battleship mobility.
Guns lack penetration power vs higher tier battleships.
Short range secondaries only reach 5km with Advanced Firing Training.

Research

As a premium ship, Arizona doesn't have any upgrades to research.
