Player Opinion
Performance
Pros:
- Good rudder shift time when upgraded to B-hull.
- Superstructure is small with well-armored conning towers to eat HE.
- Hull armor scheme pairs well with main battery layout.
- Main guns have good firing arcs and, for their limitations, shell ballistics.
- Damage control has fast cooldowns in exchange for limited charges.
Cons:
- Detection range is higher than maximum possible firing range without commander skills and camo.
- Slowest unmodified main battery reload in the game along with Knyaz Suvorov.
- Slightly improved, but still poor AA defense.
- High and underprotected citadel is easily hit if not angled.
- No torpedo blisters means only a 9% reduction in damage from torpedo hits
