• Strong armor belt.

Cons:

• Very poor gun angles, must expose significant broadside to fire the rear turret, or the fore turrets to the rear.
• Cannot equip the Observation Seaplaneconsumable.
• Most AA DPS is short-range, limiting effectiveness in practice.
• Slow rudder shift time for a Tier VI battleship.
