?* Hull side plating is 32mm thick, ideal to ricochet AP shells with the proper angling+ 
?* Quick main battery traverse speed+
?* Despite the gun caliber, ''Austin's'' main guns have fairly flat shell arcs and decent ballistics+
?* Very good HE fire chance +
?* SAP shells have improved penetration angles and 36mm raw penetration.+
?* One quintuple torpedo launcher per side, equipped with ''[[Fletcher]]'''s upgraded torpedoes (good range, speed and damage)+
?* Powerful AA defenses, aided by the {{Defensive AA Fire}} consumable+
?* Improved {{Repair Party}} consumables with one extra charge and higher than average health recovery +
?* The {{Main Battery Reload Booster}} consumable has ''unlimited'' charges, and provides a massive DPM boost when active.+
?* Excellent ship handling - high top speed, good turn radius and good rudder shift+
?* Very good concealment with all the relevant upgrades+

?* Smallest health pool of all Tier X cruisers.+ 
?* Exposed citadel.+
?* Her armor is too thick to let shells overpenetrate but too thin to provide meaningful protection. Arguably the most fragile cruiser at tier.+
?* Short main battery range.+
?* Unmodified, ''Austin'''s rate of fire is fairly disappointing.+
