Special

Missouri — American special premium Tier IX battleship.

One of the Iowa-class battleships that were the fastest ships of this type in the world. She carried very powerful main battery guns, and boasted excellent AA defense and reliable torpedo protection.

USS Missouri is now preserved as a military museum ship in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.

Player Opinion

Performance

Missouri is a Tier IX premium US Battleship. She shares many similarities with her tech tree sister ship Iowa, but has several key differences.

The primary difference is that Missouri carries the Surveillance Radar consumable instead of Catapult Fighter. This completely changes her play style, allowing her to aggressively support capture areas and help her team's destroyers to win battles in those areas. She is especially dangerous to British cruisers, as the radar allows her to penetrate their smoke screens and catch them off guard with a well-aimed salvo of armor penetrating shells. Other than the radar, her other combat characteristics are similar to Iowa, with her powerful super-heavy AP rounds, high speed, high citadel, and good anti-aircraft suite.

Missouri’s other significant difference from Iowa is her status as a premium ship. This means she earns extremely large amounts of credits — 1 million credits per match with a premium account is easily achievable in an average-to-good battle, with 1.5 to 2 million credits being possible if all modifiers are stacked in a really good battle — and experience, as well as being able to train American ship captains. The only downside to Missouri is her 750,000 Free experience cost, which equates to 30,000 doubloons to convert, making her extremely expensive. Whether she is worth this cost is up to individual captains.

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

Pros:

Shares the same pros as Iowa.
Improved forward bulkhead protection over Iowa.
Has access to the Surveillance Radar consumable, active for 35 seconds with a 9.45 km range.
Very good at making credits.

Cons:

Shares the same cons as Iowa.
Steep cost.
Slightly weaker torpedo protection than Iowa.

Research

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

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

Missouri, being a tier nine premium battleship, has full access to all six slots that her sister ship Iowa has. That said, the recommended upgrades for Missouri are similar choices.

Camouflage

As a premium ship, Missouri comes included with Type 10 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, and increases the amount of experience she earns. It should be noted that Missouri has two different Type 10 camouflage schemes to choose from; the only difference between them is their appearance.
