Special

Strasbourg — French special premium Tier VII battleship.

The second Dunkerque-class battlecruiser featured an improved armor layout, including a thicker armor belt. At the beginning of World War II, Strasbourg participated in patrol and escort operations before being sent to Mers-el-Kébir. After the capitulation of France, the British Navy attacked the French ships as part of Operation Catapult. Strasbourg managed to escape the harbor and arrive at Toulon.

Player Opinion

Pros:

Better main battery reload speed and accuracy compared to sister ship Dunkerque
Longer secondary battery range compared to sister ship Dunkerque
Good main battery traverse speed
Excellent AP/HE shell velocity
All-forward main battery makes Strasbourg durable against 356mm and lower gun calibers when bow-in
Good ship speed, decent turn radius and rudder shift
Access to the Main Battery Reload Booster  consumable

Cons:

Same AP/HE performance (damage, penetration) as sister ship Dunkerque, a tier higher. She may struggle to deal damage against enemy battleships, even if they show almost all of their broadside, especially at a larger distance.
Small healthpool for a Tier 7 battleship
Armor profile is weak, expect to take extensive damage from HE spam and large caliber overmatches
Very weak AA suite, vulnerable to plane attacks
The Main Battery Reload Booster  has an extremely long cooldown
Poor concealment

Research

As a premium ship, Strasbourg doesn't have any upgrades to research.
