Aurora — Soviet premium Tier III cruiser.

The last ship in the Pallada class of protected cruisers, Aurora was surpassed in speed by other ships of her type and time. The ship was modernized to receive significantly enhanced armament. As a result, she became superior in artillery firepower to World War I cruisers with similar displacement.

Aurora is now preserved as a military museum ship in St. Petersburg, Russia. She was first released for sale on the NA servers on 30 June 2015.

Player Opinion

Performance

Warning. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.
Refer to the in-game Port screens for more useful data.

Aurora is a protected cruiser armed with 14 152 mm guns in shielded single mounts. The ship can be compared to the American St. Louis as both ships have similar layouts. However, Aurora suffers from having worse armor and fewer hit points than St. Louis. Furthermore, the top speed of 19 knots makes Aurora one of the slower ships in her tier. Aurora is able to present a broadside of 8 guns at a time to the enemy with a range of 11.2 km. However, it should be noted that the shell arcs for this ship can be rather high.

Overall, Aurora is a workable ship for players looking for a low tier premium cruiser. However, its sluggish maneuverability and lackluster guns may be frustrating for some players.


Pros:

  • Large number of guns on each broadside.
  • Large HP pool for her tier.

Cons:

  • Slow speed and sluggish acceleration.
  • AP ammo rarely effective.
  • Practically absent anti-aircraft suite.
  • High shell arc and slow shell velocity.
  • No secondaries.
  • Poor armor protection.
  • Short main battery firing range of only 11.2 km.

Research

As a Premium ship, Aurora doesn't have any upgrades to research.
