Budyonny — Soviet Tier VI cruiser.

A light cruiser built under Project 94. The ship was developed from the Kirov-class warships. Unlike her prototype, she was bigger in size and featured significantly enhanced protection. The ship's main guns were smaller in caliber but had a higher rate of fire.

Player Opinion

Performance

Budyonny is the Tier VI cruisers in the Russian tech tree, and is the ship that sets the stage for the majority of the Russian cruisers higher than it in the branch. She is characterized be her rapid-firing 152mm guns, somewhat mediocre survivability, and long main battery range.

Budyonny deviates somewhat from Tier V's Kirov by its armament. Instead of the excellent 180mm guns found on Kirov, Budyonny packs an equally intimidating set of nine (9) 152mm guns. Though the guns are of a lower caliber than those on the Kirov, they have a higher rate of fire to compensate, while retaining the excellent armor-piercing and high explosive ammunition, as well as having flat shell arcs and rail-gun like performance that is indicative of the Russian cruiser line. These traits, coupled with the superb range of the guns that can be pushed up to just under 20 km with the use of spotter aircraft, allow Budyonny to be a potent high explosive slinger in the opening stages of a match. The Inertia Fuse for HE Shells commander skill is extremely useful for this ship, as well as the next two ships in the line; the high explosive shells of the ship are only 152mm in caliber, and IFHE allows Budyonny to reliably score significantly more damage on battleships as well as cruisers, effectively meaning players can rely less on fires for damage (though fires are still important).

The armor-piercing is nothing to sniff at either. Budyonny is more than capable of scoring citadel hits on cruisers showing their broadside, even at ranges up to 12-15 km. Her excellent shell speed, flat gun arcs, and good penetration values effectively ensure 3-6 citadels against enemy cruisers with a well-aimed salvo at close range. However, as with most other cruisers, Budyonny has a weak broadside, and players should expect a swift return to port if she allows herself to be flanked.

Budyonny is armed with short-ranged, high-speed torpedoes in two sets of triple-tube launchers that can be upgraded to quintuple-tube launchers by equipping Hull (B). Due to their anemic 4.0 km range, these are best used for ambushing unsuspecting enemies from behind an island, or as a last resort for self-defense. With a maximum damage of 14,400, these torpedoes are more than enough to cripple, if not outright sink, enemy ships that get a bit too close. At 65 knots, these torpedoes are excellent at dispatching most ship types, even destroyers.

With a top speed of 35 knots, Budyonny is one of the fastest Tier VI cruisers in the game. Unfortunately, she also behaves somewhat like an American muscle car: she only goes fast in a straight line. Though her high speed allows players to quickly re-position, her relatively long rudder shift time as well as her large turning circle can prove to be quite a hindrance at times.

Although Budyonny has a slightly sub-par survivability compared to other cruisers of her tier, it is still considered quite an improvement over the Kirov, to a certain degree. Budyonny can reliably bounce cruiser-caliber armor-piercing shells off her bow, and her slim profile when bow-on means that battleship-caliber shells will prove difficult to hit her at ranges. However, as mentioned before, players should not be overconfident as Budyonny has a weak armor belt that will do little to stop enemy shells from severely damaging her.

The play style of Russian cruisers can be hard to adjust to for newer players. Take advantage of lower-lying islands for concealment. Kite away from enemies and only swing the ship enough to bring all her main battery guns to bear. Fire armor-piercing shells at ships (excluding destroyers) showing broadside at ranges under 12 km. Try not to lead the charge alone, and finally, enjoy making well done steaks out of battleships that dare to face up to her 152mm guns.

Pros:

Long range and laser-like shell arcs allow for efficient sniping from range.
Has access to Spotting Aircraft , which extends firing range to nearly 20 km.
Excellent rate of fire and fire chance, ideal for setting plenty of fires.
Potent HE and AP shells.
Fast for a Tier VI cruiser.
A set of very fast quintuple torpedoes on each side suited for close engagements.
Decent AA, which can be strengthened by the Defensive AA Fire  consumable.

Cons:

Battleships can punish her very hard for any amount of broadside shown.
Torpedoes are very short-ranged and take a long time to reload.
Relatively long rudder shift time compared to other Tier VI cruisers.

-'''Guns and Shell Performance'''
+''Budyonny'' deviates somewhat from Tier V's ''[[Kirov]]'' by its armament. Instead of the excellent 180mm guns found on ''Kirov'', ''Budyonny'' packs an equally intimidating set of nine (9) 152mm guns.

-	The Budyonny deviates somewhat from the Kirov at tier five by its armament. Instead of the excellent 180mm guns found on the Kirov just below it, the Budyonny packs an equally intimidating set of 9 152mm guns. Though the guns are of a lower calibre than those on the Kirov they have a higher rate of fire to compensate while retaining the excellent armour-piercing and high-explosive ammunition as well as retaining the flat shell arcs and rail-gun like performance that is indicative of the Russian cruiser line. These traits as well as the superb range of the guns, that can be pushed up to just under 20km with the spotter aircraft, this allows the Budyonny to be a potent high-explosive slinger in the opening stages of a match. The IFHE skill is extremely useful for this ship: the high explosive shells of the ship is only 152mm in calibre; the IFHE skill allows the Budyonny to reliably score >2k damage on battleships as well as cruisers (this means you have to rely less on fires, though these should still be a major part of your play).
-	The armour piercing is nothing to sniff at either. I have been able to reliably score citadel penetrations on cruisers showing the broadside of their ship reliably to ranges up to 12km and I have even dished out citadel penetrations at ranges close to 15km. If a cruiser shows you his broadside at close range the excellent shell speed, flat gun arcs, and the good penetration of the shells, mean that you can expect to reliably score 3-6 citadels per salvo. However, if you show your broadside at close range, and indeed any range, expect a swift return to the port.
-'''Torpedoes'''
+The armor-piercing is nothing to sniff at either.  ''Budyonny'' is more than capable of scoring citadel hits on cruisers showing their broadside, even at ranges up to 12-15 km. Her excellent shell speed, flat gun arcs, and good penetration values effectively ensure 3-6 citadels against enemy cruisers with a well-aimed salvo at close range. However, as with most other cruisers, ''Budyonny'' has a weak broadside, and players should expect a swift return to port if she allows herself to be flanked.
-	If you are in the situation where you have to use them you have probably either done something wrong but either way the torpedoes are more than enough to cripple if not kill things that get a bit too close to you. They have very good speed and damage which makes them excellent for dispatching cruisers and even destroyers. Keep in mind however, that there are only three torpedoes and they only travel 4km, this may not be enough to knock off battleships in one torpedo spread as well as being very susceptible to being ran away from due to their short range.
-'''Manoeuvrability'''
+''Budyonny'' is armed with short-ranged, high-speed torpedoes in two sets of triple-tube launchers that can be upgraded to quintuple-tube launchers  by equipping Hull (B). Due to their anemic 4.0 km range, these are best used for ambushing unsuspecting enemies from behind an island, or as a last resort for self-defense.  With a maximum damage of 14,400, these torpedoes are more than enough to cripple, if not outright sink, enemy ships that get a bit too close. At 65 knots, these torpedoes are excellent at dispatching most ship types, even destroyers.
-	The Budyonny is a fast ship, with a top speed of 35 knots she is one of the fastest tier 6 cruisers in the game. The Budyonny does somewhat behave like an American muscle car: she only performs in a straight line, you will have experiences where you see the white shells of battleship armour piercing shells coming towards you and you will sit there in horror as the rudder slowly wanders over to the other side before you get all of your health shaven off. Though the speed is nice and allows you to equally reposition your ship the rudder shift time as well as the large turning circle can easily get you caught out.

-The Budyonny (Будённый) is based off of the Project 94 light cruiser, an attempt by Russian designers to build and improve upon the Kirov class. She was to be larger, faster, better protected, and have an improved secondary battery when compared to her predecessor. She was to assist destroyers in reconnaissance and torpedo attacks, as well as protecting larger ships from enemy destroyer attacks. Development on Project 94 began in June of 1940 and was assigned to the design bureau OKB-196, whose primary specialization was submarines. The first draft was finished in December of 1940, but it struck the designers as too weak so work on a second draft was started. All work on Project 94 was cancelled in June of 1941 with the start of the German invasion of the USSR.
