Hawke — British Tech Tree Tier VII Battleship.

After World War I, the British Admiralty continued to work on new batatlecruiser projects. Hood was applied to those as the gold standard. The K2 and K3 projects, presented in 1920, were found to be too large. One of the suggestions to fix that problem was the reduction of the gun caliber to 16 inches (406 mm) to make the ships smaller, but the Admiralty decided against the idea, and these projects never came to fruition.


Year of Design: 1943

Ship Traits
Big Guns: This ship is armed with high-caliber main battery guns.	Full Ahead: Can be equipped with Engine Boost.	Hidden: Good concealment means the ship can get closer to enemies before being detected.
