?<!--+''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a Tier VII Soviet light cruiser which inherits its play style from its tech tree sister — ''[[Shchors]]'' — while being based upon the stock hull of ''[[Chapayev]]''.
?PERFORMANCE SECTION GUIDELINES+ 
?1. Write a brief intro paragraph of 1-3 sentences.+Captains will be happy with ''{{#var:ship_name}}''’s primary firepower which comes in the form of twelve 152mm rifled guns with a nine second reload and excellent range of 17.3km. The ballistics on these guns provide captains with the opportunity to kite away and rain fire down upon enemy battleships with relative ease, making use of her unique {{Spotting Aircraft}} consumable for near constant uptime. While the guns may lag behind ''Shchors'' for damage output due to the slightly lower rate of fire, the additional range helps to compensate. The armor penetration of her AP shells is relatively high for the caliber, meaning they can be useful against cruisers which expose their broadsides; however, her high explosive shells will still be her primary ammo choice. Consequently, captains will want to invest in the [[Ship:Commander#Inertia_Fuse_for_HE_Shells|Inertia Fuse for HE Shells]] commander skill to increase the penetration of her HE shells to 32mm.
?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.+The {{Spotting Aircraft}} of ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' compliments the ship in its intended role of a long-range light cruiser by further increasing her range to 20.7km. A unique trait of this consumable is that compared to other cruisers, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' only has a 15 second cooldown before she can use the Spotting Aircraft again.
?-->+ 
 +''{{#var:ship_name}}'', like other Soviet cruisers, comes equipped a set of relatively short range torpedoes which captains may wish to make usage of in closer range brawls or to assassinate overly assertive battleships. These torpedoes should be considered a last-ditch weapon, though, as ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' lacks the armor to reliably deliver them within range of an enemy battleship or heavy cruiser.
 + 
 +Captains will find ''{{#var:ship_name}}''’s maneuverability closely resembles that of ''Shchors'', making her strong in the kiting role while the added armor affords her the chance to better sustain herself against incoming fire. The additional 4,100 hit points further increases her survivability, while she also benefits from a slight improvement in concealment. However, captains should be aware that while her armor is improved over ''Schors'', she is still very lightly armored and they must be cautious if they opt to push into close range. Her anti-aircraft battery is a slight downgrade from ''Shchors'', maintaining the same long-range and short-range firepower but reducing the damage output of her mid-range guns.
 + 
 +Overall, players who like ''Shchors'' and ''Chapayev'' will be right at home with ''{{#var:ship_name}}'', finding she plays in much the same way with only a few minor differences. She is best played at long range, making usage of her exceptional gun ballistics and {{Spotting Aircraft}} to get the best results while actively avoiding pushing aggressively until later in the game when she is less likely to be focused by multiple ships.

 ===History=== ===History===
  
 ====Design==== ====Design====
 +The Projekt 68, or ''[[Chapayev]]''-class, was to be a class of light cruisers to accompany the new fleet of large battleships being planned by the VMF in the late 1930s, as well as to perform general defense of the homeland.
 +
 +Initially, the design was based on the ''[[Kirov]]''-class Projekt 26 light cruisers, which itself was essentially a copy of the hull of the Italian ''Montecuccoli''-class light cruisers. The armament was changed to newer 152mm guns and the armor was improved compared to the ''Kirov''-class, but the resulting design was considered insufficient. VMF leadership requested an increase in the power of the main battery with the addition of a fourth main battery turret, and the project was finally approved on 13 July 1939 as Projekt 68. Standard displacement had increased up to 10,620 tons with a 100mm main armor belt and 50mm armor deck.
 +
 +However, due to the outbreak of the Second World War, and later the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, the construction of the cruisers was suspended. After the end of the war, it was decided to complete the five surviving hulls (of the seven laid down) to a revised Projekt 68K. The new design would incorporate lessons learned in the Second World War, namely in regards to increased resistance to underwater damage, with enhanced stability, operational range, and anti-aircraft firepower. Likewise, there would also be an effort to fit newer radars and radio communication devices. Standard displacement of the design increased to 11,330 metric tons as a result of changes.
 +
 +''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a representation of the original Projekt 68 design.
 +
 +The hull was double-bottomed, and divided into 19 watertight zones. The main armor belt was 100mm thick, 3.3 meters tall and 133 meters long, and closed off by transverse bulkheads – 120mm thick forward, and 100mm thick aft, extending from the height of the main armored deck to the double bottom. The main armor deck was 50mm thick, with a short 20mm extension forward of the citadel. Main battery turrets had 175mm thick faces, 65mm sides and rear, and a 75mm thick roof. Barbette armor was 130mm thick.
 +The ships were powered by six KV-68 boilers, which were licensed-built versions designed by Ansaldo, operating at a pressure of 26 atmospheres and a temperate of 350º C. These fed two TV-7 geared shaft turbines, each producing 55,000 shp for a total of 110,000 shp, which was sufficient for a top speed of 33.5 knots. Electrical power capacity was 1,700 kW and was in DC.
 +
 +The main battery was twelve 152mm/57 B-38 Pattern 1938 naval rifles, individually sleeved in four MK-5 three-gun turrets. They fired 55 kg Armor-Piercing shells at a velocity of 950 m/s and 48.5 kg HE shells at 800 m/s, with a firing cycle of 8 seconds (7.5 rounds per minute). The MK-5 turrets had a traverse arc of ±150º and a maximum traverse speed of 7.2º/sec. Elevation was from -5º to +45º, with a maximum rate of 13.4º/sec. At ±45º elevation maximum elevation of the AP was 30,215 meters, and 23,720 meters for the HE.
 +
 +The secondary battery consisted of eight 100mm/56 B-34 Pattern 1940 dual-purpose guns, mounted in four twin B-54 turrets. The rate of fire was 16 rounds per minute (3.75 second firing cycle), firing either a 15.8 kg HE shell at 895 m/s to a maximum range of 22,241 meters, or a 15.6 kg AA shell at 900 m/s to a ceiling of 10,000 meters. Elevation was from -8º to +85º with a rate of 10º/sec, and train a full 360º at a rate of 12º/sec.
 +Light anti-aircraft armament was twelve 37mm/67 70-K in six twin 66-K mounts. These autocannons fired a 732 gram shell at 880 m/s with a practical rate of fire of 145 rounds per minute (160-180 rpm cyclical). Maximum ballistic range was 8400 meters, with a ceiling of 5000 meters (4000 meters effective). This was complemented with eight 12.7mm DShKM-2B in four twin mounts with a rate of fire of 600 rounds/minute.
 +
 +The ships also carried two triple 533mm torpedo tubes and could undertake minelaying tasks, carrying 90 mines. For reconnaissance and spotting corrections, two KOP 2 seaplanes were to be carried, launched via an amidships catapult.

 +''{{#var:ship_name}}'' was a member of the ''[[Chapayev]]''-class (Projekt 68) light cruisers, most of which were laid down during the Second World War, but not completed until 1950. ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' was planned to be the eleventh of fifteen sisters, to be ordered in the third Five-Year Plan and laid down in September 1941. She would have then commissioned in 1944 as part of the Pacific fleet (Tikhookeanski Flot). The place of construction would have been yard No. 199 at Komsomol'sk. However, due to the invasion of Soviet Russia by Nazi Germany, the ship was never ordered

Player Opinion

Performance

Lazo is a Tier VII Soviet light cruiser which inherits its play style from its tech tree sister — Shchors — while being based upon the stock hull of Chapayev.

Captains will be happy with Lazo’s primary firepower which comes in the form of twelve 152mm rifled guns with a nine second reload and excellent range of 17.3km. The ballistics on these guns provide captains with the opportunity to kite away and rain fire down upon enemy battleships with relative ease, making use of her unique Spotting Aircraft While active, a spotter plane circles the ship enhancing main battery firing range. consumable for near constant uptime. While the guns may lag behind Shchors for damage output due to the slightly lower rate of fire, the additional range helps to compensate. The armor penetration of her AP shells is relatively high for the caliber, meaning they can be useful against cruisers which expose their broadsides; however, her high explosive shells will still be her primary ammo choice. Consequently, captains will want to invest in the Inertia Fuse for HE Shells commander skill to increase the penetration of her HE shells to 32mm.

The Spotting Aircraft While active, a spotter plane circles the ship enhancing main battery firing range. of Lazo compliments the ship in its intended role of a long-range light cruiser by further increasing her range to 20.7km. A unique trait of this consumable is that compared to other cruisers, Lazo only has a 15 second cooldown before she can use the Spotting Aircraft again.

Lazo, like other Soviet cruisers, comes equipped a set of relatively short range torpedoes which captains may wish to make usage of in closer range brawls or to assassinate overly assertive battleships. These torpedoes should be considered a last-ditch weapon, though, as Lazo lacks the armor to reliably deliver them within range of an enemy battleship or heavy cruiser.

Captains will find Lazo’s maneuverability closely resembles that of Shchors, making her strong in the kiting role while the added armor affords her the chance to better sustain herself against incoming fire. The additional 4,100 hit points further increases her survivability, while she also benefits from a slight improvement in concealment. However, captains should be aware that while her armor is improved over Schors, she is still very lightly armored and they must be cautious if they opt to push into close range. Her anti-aircraft battery is a slight downgrade from Shchors, maintaining the same long-range and short-range firepower but reducing the damage output of her mid-range guns.

Overall, players who like Shchors and Chapayev will be right at home with Lazo, finding she plays in much the same way with only a few minor differences. She is best played at long range, making usage of her exceptional gun ballistics and Spotting Aircraft While active, a spotter plane circles the ship enhancing main battery firing range. to get the best results while actively avoiding pushing aggressively until later in the game when she is less likely to be focused by multiple ships.


LittleWhiteMouse's Premium Ship Review: Lazo from the NA forums

Pros:

  • Long main battery firing range at 17.3km range.
  • Spotting Aircraft While active, a spotter plane circles the ship enhancing main battery firing range. has very short cooldown, allowing Lazo to consistently maintain maximum firing range.
  • High explosive shells have high fire chance and can pack a punch with the captain skill "Inertia Fuse for HE Shells".
  • Very good ballistics for 152mm shells
  • Her AP has high penetration compared to many of her light cruiser counterparts
  • She is in essence an A-hull Chapayev, meaning she recieves a better health pool than Shchors

Cons:

  • Poor armor protection; lack of angling and dodging can result in huge damage taken.
  • Short-range "suicide" torpedoes.
  • Relatively poor maneuverability in comparison to other Tier VII cruisers.
  • Although good at medium ranges, her ballistics become poor, especially combined with the range given to her with Spotting Aircraft While active, a spotter plane circles the ship enhancing main battery firing range.
  • She has 1 second slower reload compared to her counterpart Shchors

Research

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

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

The recommended upgrades for Lazo are as follows:

Since Lazo plays similar to her tech tree counterparts, a standard build that emphasizes her survivability and main armaments is a viable options. Alternatively, captains may elect to use Spotting Aircraft Modification 1 Increases the action time of the Spotting Aircraft, Rapid Takeoff Spotter, and High-Precision Spotter consumables.: +30% action time. to capitalize on the kiting play-style that favors Lazo.

Commander Skills

Lazo is very similar to Shchors, and thus many of the same recommended skills will overlap between the two ships.

Consumables

Lazo can equip the following consumables:

Captains should take note of the special nature of Lazo’s Spotting Aircraft. It has a very quick cooldown and uptime compared with other cruisers.

Camouflage

As a premium ship, Lazo comes included with Type 10 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, reduces her repair costs, and increases the amount of experience she earns.

Signals

Lazo captains should mount standard signal flags to improve the ship's performance in battle. Sierra Mike (+5% to the ship's maximum speed.) flags are highly recommended to increase the ship's top speed. India X-Ray (+1% chance of causing a fire for bombs and shells with a caliber above 160mm. / +0.5% chance of causing a fire for bombs and shells with a caliber below 160mm. / +5% to the risk of your ship's magazine detonating.) and Victor Lima (+1% chance of causing a fire for bombs and shells with a caliber above 160mm / +0.5% chance of causing a fire for bombs and shells with a caliber below 160mm. / +4% chance of causing flooding.) flags should be mounted to improve the ship's main battery fire chance. November Foxtrot (-5% reload time on all consumables.) flags can also be mounted to decrease consumable cooldown time. Lastly, economic and special signal flags can be mounted to increase the ship's economic gains per battle.


Note: Use of the Juliet Charlie signal makes detonation impossible.
