Izumo — Japanese Tech Tree Tier VIII Battleship.

One of the draft designs for a "super battleship" concept, preceding the appearance of the Yamato-class battleships. This design featured heavy armor and a sufficiently high speed complemented by powerful main battery guns that were unconventionally placed in three turrets located at the ship's front end.


Year of Design: 1935

Player Opinion


Pros:

  • Main battery gun penetration is excellent, with very high shell velocity for a battleship.
  • Great dispersion due to IJN battleship dispersion and sigma.
  • Small superstructure means that incoming shells don't have a whole lot to hit, and the 57mm weather deck over the middle shatters almost all cruiser HE.
  • Good belt armor.
  • Great angling potential due to guns having favorable arcs forwards.



Cons:

  • Izumo is a large target.
  • Has one less gun barrel compared to its predecessor.
  • In many respects, Izumo is inferior to Amagi - including size, speed, torpedo protection, and maneuvrability.
  • Second turret's tall barbette makes the turret vulnerable to getting knocked out.
  • While she has a turtleback, it is not as effective as the Germans', meaning turning broadside can result in multiple citadels.
  • Turret placement leaves ship extremely vulnerable to attacks in aft arc and makes the third turret somewhat difficult to use.
  • Though buffed, concealment is still mediocre.
