ARP Haruna

ARP Haruna

 ARP Haruna — Japanese • Premium • Tier IV • Battleship.

A "Fleet of Fog" battleship modeled on the Imperial Japanese Navy's third Kongō-class battleship, Haruna. She attacked Yokosuka together with Kirishima while in pursuit of I-401. She initially had the advantage when she engaged submarine I-401, but the superior tactics of Gunzō Chihaya–the commander of I-401–turned the tide of the battle, and she was destroyed. Her Mental Model, Haruna, always wears a large overcoat and has a keen interest in the human language.

Player Opinion

Battleship - ARP Haruna

Pros:

• Great main battery range.
• Can reach 30 knots, allowing her to keep up with cruisers and relocate if needed.
• Surprisingly maneuverable and can cover her turning circle quite quickly.
• Decent penetration of main battery AP shells.
• Above-average secondary guns for her tier; they are superior to Kongō's.
• Feels like a modern battleship in a world of outdated WWI era ships.
• Good firing angles.

Cons:

• Low AA suite potency.
• Weak armor is easily penetrated by battleship shells, though it can be partially overcome with angling.
• Being a mid-tier battleship, her dispersion is still somewhat high at longer range.
• Turret traverse is rather sluggish like most other Tier IV battleships.
