Graf Spee B — German Premium Tier V Cruiser.

She belonged to a class of unique ships that combined the features of both battleships and cruisers. The German Navy officially classified her as a "Panzerschiff" (armored ship). Armed with 283 mm main guns, the ship was superior to any light or heavy cruiser of her time in terms of firepower, and was only slightly inferior to them in terms of her speed.

Entered Service: 1936
Ships in a series: 3

Ship Traits			Premium Trait
Big and Flammable: Fires set on this ship last longer due to her large size and high caliber guns.	Tough: Above average base HP rating.	Greater Heal: Repair Party restores severe damage.	Money Maker: Grants a significant bonus to XP and credit earnings.

Player Opinion

Pros:

• Largest HP pool of all Tier V cruisers
• Largest guns of all Tier V cruisers with high AP penetration and damage, enough to be a threat to battleships
• Excellent turret traverse speed for such large guns
• Good torpedoes with good range and wide firing arcs
• Very good torpedo protection for a cruiser
• Good set of consumables

Cons:

• Only six rifles in two turrets; poor DPM
• Bad main battery firing angles (better when angling/kiting away)
• Very poor reload time for a cruiser
• Underwhelming HE performance; low damage and poor fire chance
• Low top speed
• Worst accuracy of all Tier V cruisers
• Fires and floods last longer compared to standard cruisers
• Thin plating makes her vulnerable to most higher tier battleships from overmatch
• Torpedo launcher easily get incapacitated or destroyed when kitting
• Vulnerable engine and rudder
