?<!--+Tier VIII Premium cruiser ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is remarkably similar to her sister ship, ''[[Mikhail Kutuzov]]''. A few key differences between the two exist, though. ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is Pan-Asian for starters, and gains a better torpedo suite, along with the {{Torpedo Reload Booster}} consumable in exchange for losing ''Mikhail Kutuzov''’s {{Smoke Generator}}, {{Defensive AA Fire}}, and some of her range.
?PERFORMANCE SECTION GUIDELINES+ 
?1. Write a brief intro paragraph of 1-3 sentences.+''{{#var:ship_name}}'' owes the largest part of her offensive strength to the twelve 152mm guns she's packing. They have the classic Russian fast shell velocities and low firing arcs, making hitting targets even at the extreme limits of her 17.5 km range much easier than other, similarly armed ships. Unfortunately, the relatively low caliber of these shells necessitates using the commander skill [[Ship:Commander#Inertia_Fuse_for_HE_Shells|Inertia Fuse for HE Shells]] to maximize her offense. It gives ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' the punch needed to do direct damage to many of the ships within her tier spread, a cost well worth the loss of fire chance. Be wary though: as with most other cruisers, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' requires time to do damage with her guns, and is very vulnerable to return fire. Every moment spent spotted and shooting is time that the enemy team can fire back at her. ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' must be played with care, using her range and excellent shell ballistics to keep enemies at arm's length.
?2. Write 1-3 paragraphs of "meat". Talk about what the ship does well, what it doesn't, how it compares to same tier ships of the same type, how it compares to the previous ship in the tech tree, whatever. Try to avoid quoting vital statistics to players unless it is really relevant (i.e. concealment); they can see those in the sidebar on the right and don't need them read back. + 
?3. Write a brief summary paragraph of 1-3 sentences highlighting the key takeaways from the paragraphs above.+However, should captains find themselves a touch closer to their foes, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' possesses a potent deepwater torpedo armament. While they lose the ability to harm destroyers, these torpedoes are perfect for quickly taking down any other class of ship. They are the longest ranged torpedoes put on to an cruiser in World of Warships with a maximum range of 13.5 km, and are extremely stealthy while packing a sizeable punch. While it certainly isn't risk-free getting into the ranges required to use these torpedoes due to ''{{#var:ship_name}}''s’ relative fragility, they are a welcome addition to her arsenal... especially with the inclusion of her {{Torpedo Reload Booster}} consumable, that allows captains to launch a second salvo of torpedoes very quickly.
?-->+ 
 +Overall, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' has an very high ceiling in terms of offensive firepower in exchange for not being overly stealthy or well-armored. She is very much a glass cannon, but one that will make her impact felt in any battle, whether she ultimately sinks or not.

?Named after Sergo Ordzhonikidze. Sold to Indonesia 1962, recommissioned KRI Irian in 1963. Sold for scrap to Taiwan in 1972. British frogman Lionel Crabb disappeared in 1956 when secretly inspecting this ship for MI6 when it was docked in Portsmouth Harbour. + 
 ====Design==== ====Design====
 +The ''Sverdlov''-class light cruisers were a development over the ''[[Chapayev]]-class, which was still a design from the World War II era. While the armor and main armament of the ships were to remain the same, other improvements were desired.
 +
 +Compared to the ''Chapayevs'', the ''Sverdlov'' class was noticeably enlarged. With an overall length of 212 meters, a 22 meter beam, and a draft of almost 7.4 meters, these ships could displace up to 16,600 tons when fully loaded. The crew complement counted 1,270 men. As light cruisers, the main armament was fairly standard for ships of their time: four turrets, with each housing three 152mm L/57 B-38 guns, were mounted on the centerline. Firing a 55kg heavy shell at ranges of up to thirty kilometers, these guns could fire six-and-a-half rounds every minute.
 +
 +Auxilliary armament saw twelve twin-mounted 100mm/70 dual purpose guns, with three mounts on each side of the ship. Each gun could fire a 15.6kg heavy shell with up to 18 rounds per minute. The automatic AA guns consisted of 16 twin mounts with fully automatic 37mm/70 guns. Two quintuple Torpedo launchers and up to 132 mines were also installed.
 +
 +The armor protection was identical to that of the preceding ''Chapayev'' class. The vital areas were protected by a 100mm strong belt, which was closed by a 100mm strong bulkhead to the rear and 120mm to the front. A 50mm thick deck provided protection against plunging shells and bombs. The main armament was protected by 130mm strong barbettes, while the turrets featured a 175mm face plate and 60-75mm thick sides and roof. For the conning tower, 130mm armor for the sides and a 100mm roof were deemed sufficient.
 +
 +Six boilers produced steam for two turbines, which could generate 110,000 shaft horsepower on two shafts. This allowed for a designed top speed of 32.7 knots, and with enough fuel — greatly improved over the ''Chapayev'' class — for a cruising range up to 5,700 nautical miles at 17 knots.

Player Opinion

Performance

Tier VIII Premium cruiser Irian is remarkably similar to her sister ship, Mikhail Kutuzov. A few key differences between the two exist, though. Irian is Pan-Asian for starters, and gains a better torpedo suite, along with the Torpedo Reload BoosterWhen used, torpedo reload time is significantly reduced. consumable in exchange for losing Mikhail Kutuzov’s Smoke GeneratorWhile active, generates a smoke screen that blocks line-of-sight for both enemies and teammates., Defensive AA FireWhile active, the damage per second of large caliber anti-aircraft guns is increased., and some of her range.

Irian owes the largest part of her offensive strength to the twelve 152mm guns she's packing. They have the classic Russian fast shell velocities and low firing arcs, making hitting targets even at the extreme limits of her 17.5 km range much easier than other, similarly armed ships. Unfortunately, the relatively low caliber of these shells necessitates using the commander skill Inertia Fuse for HE Shells to maximize her offense. It gives Irian the punch needed to do direct damage to many of the ships within her tier spread, a cost well worth the loss of fire chance. Be wary though: as with most other cruisers, Irian requires time to do damage with her guns, and is very vulnerable to return fire. Every moment spent spotted and shooting is time that the enemy team can fire back at her. Irian must be played with care, using her range and excellent shell ballistics to keep enemies at arm's length.

However, should captains find themselves a touch closer to their foes, Irian possesses a potent deepwater torpedo armament. While they lose the ability to harm destroyers, these torpedoes are perfect for quickly taking down any other class of ship. They are the longest ranged torpedoes put on to an cruiser in World of Warships with a maximum range of 13.5 km, and are extremely stealthy while packing a sizeable punch. While it certainly isn't risk-free getting into the ranges required to use these torpedoes due to Irians’ relative fragility, they are a welcome addition to her arsenal... especially with the inclusion of her Torpedo Reload BoosterWhen used, torpedo reload time is significantly reduced. consumable, that allows captains to launch a second salvo of torpedoes very quickly.

Overall, Irian has an very high ceiling in terms of offensive firepower in exchange for not being overly stealthy or well-armored. She is very much a glass cannon, but one that will make her impact felt in any battle, whether she ultimately sinks or not.


Pros:

  • Twelve long range, high velocity 152mm guns.
  • One quintuple-tube torpedo launchers on each side with, long range, and stealthy torpedoes.
  • Solid anti-aircraft suite.
  • Equips the Torpedo Reload BoosterWhen used, torpedo reload time is significantly reduced. consumable for quickly reloading her torpedoes.
  • Good base 12% fire chance on HE shells.

Cons:

  • Requires IFHE to deal direct damage to 32mm plating.
  • Lacks the vision-obscuring smoke of sister ship Mikhail Kutuzov and her smoke.
  • Very lightly armored; capable of taking damage from nearly any angle.
  • Ballistic performance of her guns makes utilizing islands as cover difficult.
  • Rudder shift time is very sub-par for her tier; as a result, she handles somewhat sluggishly.
