Update 13.7: Almirante Oquendo at the Dockyard

Update 13.7 delivers the following:

Almirante Oquendo at the Dockyard

Starts: Aug 7, 04:00 AM Central (UTC-5)
Ends: Oct 30, 04:00 AM Central (UTC-5)

Our new Premium ship addition, IX Almte. Oquendo, packs a great punch with her twelve 203 mm barrels, and she can dish out decent damage per minute.

The shipbuilding process of IX Almte. Oquendo consists of 20 phases, 18 of which can be progressed through by completing Dockyard combat missions. That leaves two phases to take care of by other means, such as purchasing them with Doubloons. However, upon reaching Phase 11 of the Dockyard, you'll be rewarded with VI Leipzig, and if her sleek figure is already gracing your Port, you'll be advanced through the two necessary Dockyard phases instead.

This means that, with all conditions fulfilled and after completing enough combat missions, it's possible to obtain IX Almte. Oquendo completely free.

We'll share more details in a [ dedicated publication].

Tashkent '39 is a Soviet destroyer flotilla leader designed and built at the Odero-Terni-Orlando shipyard in Italy. When she was commissioned into the navy in October 1939, three single-gun 130 mm B-13 gun mounts were placed on the ship as temporary weapons. With that artillery on board, the ship met the beginning of the Great Patriotic War. In July 1941 Tashkent received her standard weaponry of three B-2LM mounts.

In the aftermath of the attack, she was refloated and extensively rebuilt. In the autumn of 1944, the battleship returned to service and proved herself with excellence in the Battle of Leyte. Later, she took part in the Battle of Iwo Jima and the landings on Okinawa. During the course of World War II, West Virginia was awarded five battle stars.

In contrast to their predecessors, they boasted greater surface speed and improved living conditions for their crew. They were of a double-hull design, with the torpedo tubes distributed evenly between the bow and stern. Since 1981, HMS Alliance has been a memorial and museum ship at Gosport.

The ship was launched in June 1953 and commissioned in December 1954. In February 1955, she was assigned to the Northern Fleet, but during the summer of the same year, the cruiser headed for Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky to join the 14th Cruiser Division of the Pacific Fleet. In 1961, Dmitry Pozharsky joined the 9th Division of ASW Ships, and from 1967, she was on active duty within the 10th Tactical Squadron permanently operating in the Indian Ocean.

However, with the end of World War I and the collapse of Austria-Hungary, the destroyer was never built.

Low detectability
Each torpedo deals low damage
Smoke Generator consumable unavailable
