Kii — Japanese Premium Tier VII Battleship.

This high-speed battleship was designed under the 1920 shipbuilding program. The ship was a further development of the Amagi-class battleship design. Compared with her predecessor, she had heavier armor protection. The Kii-class battleships were canceled as a result of the Washington Naval Treaty in 1922.


Year of Design: 1921

Ship Traits			Premium Trait
Ironclad: Above average armor thickness. Greater resisitance to all forms of armor penetration.	Sure Shot: Shells with a good ballistic trajectory maintain velocity, making aiming easier.	Low Yield: Below average torpedo damage.	Money Maker: Grants a significant bonus to XP and credit earnings.

Player Opinion

Pros:

• Incredible broadside firepower, with ten 410mm guns on 5 turrets.
• Unlike Amagi, Kii can launch 3 torpedoes per side for close range engagements.
• An AA suite comparable of American counterparts.
• Has both the strong AP and HE shells that Amagi has.
• More HP than her tech-tree counterpart.

Cons:

• Lacks the torpedo defense system of its sister ship Amagi.
• Sigma value of 1.7 is worse than Amagi's.
• Thin citadel plating and largely ineffective turtleback means that she will be citadelled with ease, brawl only with extreme caution.
• Less torpedo protection than her tech-tree counterpart.
