Moskva — Soviet special premium Tier X cruiser.

A ship designed and intended to destroy light enemy cruisers and fight against heavy cruisers (Project 66). Unlike her foreign counterparts, she boasted bigger dimensions and better armor protection. The cruiser's main battery surpassed foreign guns in maximum range and destructive power but had a lower rate of fire.

Moskva is available in the Armory for 244,000 Coal.

Player Opinion

Performance

A premium Russian heavy cruiser, Moskva is considered to be more of a battleship than a cruiser. Her play style is unique at its tier, especially given the difficulty of controlling the ship.

Moskva to many players can be considered a contradicting ship. While having only a slightly larger caliber than the standard 203mm/8" gun caliber of most heavy cruisers, Moskva’s main batteries have a long base range of 19.4km, with HE shell capabilities similar to that of the IJN heavy cruisers, and AP shells comparable to a battleship’s in terms of raw damage and penetration; it is quite possible to citadel battleships below 10 km. She has belt and bow plating of 50mm; respectable for a cruiser; protecting her from even Yamato’s shells when properly angled. In addition, Moskva has a high top speed of 34.5 knots, and has a huge health pool, comparable to a Tier VIII battleship. However, Moskva is not without significant weaknesses.

Given the size of Moskva, she has the worst concealment of all cruisers, equal to that of Yamato. This makes her easily avoided by destroyers, given that her radar range is that of the typical VMF 12km. In addition, while Moskva has 50mm belt plating, she also has a very high citadel section. Moreover, she has a horrendous turning circle radius of 1000m and mediocre rudder shift time, making sharp turns impossible and hard-to-port or -starboard potentially punishing. She also has the worst anti-aircraft suite of any Tier X cruiser; while she has good long range AA when you build for it (captain skills and upgrades), she has so few AA guns that a couple of HE salvos will delete her AA defenses, making Defensive AA Fire of low value. This means that, when coupled with her large turning circle radius, she will easily be punished by opportunistic enemy battleships or heavy cruisers. These flaws mean that poor positioning is generally a death sentence. Even though Moskva seemingly has significantly better survivability than most cruisers, an enemy team can quickly eliminate her if they catch her in a poor position.

Overall, Moskva is a double edged ship. On one hand, her armor, firepower, and survivability make her practically a battlecruiser in a cruiser slot, favoring good players and proper positioning. On the other hand, her large profile, clumsy handling, poor AA, and high citadel means that bad players will have a hard time if they play too arrogantly. Tame her power and she will serve you well, but if you are unworthy she will be a stronger enemy than the opponent.

Pros:

Extremely large hitpoint pool, comparable to a Tier 8 battleship
One of the longest gun ranges among all cruisers
High top speed of 34.5 knots
Outstanding shell velocity, good accuracy, and flat arcs
Powerful AP shells with excellent penetration, enough to citadel battleships at mid range
Good AA suite that with the option of Defensive AA Fire  consumable
Thick armor for a cruiser, very durable when properly angled
Has access to the Surveillance Radar  consumable

Cons:

Enormous ship with abysmal concealment
Very large turn radius of over 1000 meters
Poorly armored turrets can be easily disabled or even destroyed
Doesn't have any torpedo armament
AA suite susceptible to HE hits
Very large and exposed citadel block, its outer plating is the ship's belt armor
Cannot withstand concentrated enemy fire despite its armor and health being similar to a battleship's
The exposed citadel, huge size, poor concealment and large turn radius make disengaging a challenge

Research

Since it is a Tier 10 cruiser, there is nothing to research.

Optimal Configuration

Commander Skills

Moskva plays as a fire-support vessel, but has enough HP to tank quite a few hits if necessary. As a result, commanders should be trained in a similar fashion as battleships, but keep in mind you cannot tank hits for an extended period of time.

+A premium Russian heavy cruiser, ''Moskva'' is considered to be more of a battleship than a cruiser. Her play style is unique at its tier, especially given the difficulty of controlling the ship.
-''Moskva'' to many players can be considered a contradicting ship. While the guns are only a little bigger compared to the other cruisers of the same tier, they have a long base range of 19.4km, have similar HE performance to the IJN heavy cruisers, and the AP is comparable to a battleship in terms of raw damage and pen.  It is quite possible to citadel even battleships below 10 km with them, and the HE performs just as well.  The armor is very strong in this ship, featuring 50mm plating and a 50mm "icebreaker" bow covering over half the bow itself, allowing to bounce even ''Yamato'' and ''Musashi'' levels of shells when properly angled. She is also fast, with a base speed of 34.5 knots, and with the largest base health of the tech tree cruisers, she is comparable to a t8 battleship. However this strong ship has some significant weaknesses. The most obvious is that the ship is large, has the worst concealment, and has over 1000m turning circle radius. These flaws mean that poor positioning is a death sentence; even though you are significantly tankier than most cruisers, once you are focused by the enemy you are going to be punished with no opportunity to flee. ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' has an extremely high citadel, and coupled with her large turning circle radius means that she will be easily punished. The ship also has the worst AA of any t10 cruiser, and while it has good long range AA when you build for it, she has so few that a couple of HE salvos mean that your AA will be immediately neutered; taking {{Defensive Fire}} is at best used for self defense and even then a competent carrier can and will destroy ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' easily.
-''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a double edged ship. On one hand, her armor, firepower, and survivability make this ship practically another battleship concealed in a cruiser slot, favoring good players and proper positioning. On the other hand, her large profile, clumsy handling, poor AA, and high citadel means that bad players will have a hard time if they play too arrogantly. In short, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a well suited ship to claim the top tier spot for the Russian line; Tame her power and she will serve you well, but if you are unworthy she will be a stronger enemy than the opponent.
