Alexander Nevsky — Soviet Tier X cruiser.

In 1955, the terms of reference were approved for the construction of a Project 84 light cruiser, which was assigned to provide anti-aircraft cover for ship task forces during their passage across the seas. It was planned to build five cruisers and equip them with the most advanced ZIF-75 AA mounts by 1964. The lead ship was supposed to enter service in 1960, but after Nikolay Kuznetsov was removed from the post of People's Commissar of the Navy, work was halted.

Player Opinion

Pros:

Quick main battery traverse speed
Quick main battery reload speed
Excellent main battery range
Excellent ballistics - amazing AP and HE shell velocity and flat arcs
Good AP penetration and HE firestarting capability
Strong AA suite, aided by the Defensive AA Fire  consumable
Access to Surveillance Radar  with very good range and good duration
Excellent ship speed at 36 knots unmodified

Cons:

Huge target with poor concealment
Despite its size, Alexander Nevsky is still a light cruiser and is poorly armored
Enormous turn radius and slow rudder shift
HE shells require IFHE to penetrate 32mm common plating
Only eight guns in four twin turrets, shell volume and alpha strike are low
