Shikishima — Japanese special premium Tier X battleship.

The plans for the Yamato-class battleships included the construction of eight ships before 1950. At the beginning of 1941, the program was adjusted: Based on intelligence data on the scale of construction of capital ships in the U.S., the leadership of the Japanese Navy decided to increase the number of battleships under construction. One of the ships was supposed to be built according to the design of the Yamato class, and all subsequent ones—according to an improved design with 510 mm main battery artillery. A six-gun variant with three main battery turrets had a standard displacement of 65,700 tons.

Player Opinion

Performance

Playstyle-wise, with only short-ranged AA, a high, poorly armored citadel, and being one of the largest ships in the game, Shikishima is not meant to be played as a brawler, or as the vanguard of a formation of ships, but with decent accuracy and outstanding sigma (even better dispersion than Yamato), as well as the largest guns of the game means that it can and will be able to fairly easily overmatch battleship- and cruiser-sized plating. As a battleship, your target should be other battleships and heavy cruisers. You should shoot AP at their broadsides, and with good ballistics, you can theoretically penetrate the citadel from any angle as the AP shells will fuse on time if you shoot through a heavily-armored bow or broadside. Poor vertical dispersion, as well as having only six barrels means that landing shots on target from long distance will pose a challenge, but Shikishima makes up for it with a stock reload of 27 seconds (which can be further decreased with the right captain skills and mods, such as Main Battery Mod. 3) that allows for it to squeeze opportunistic salvos at fast cruisers and battleships alike, incidentally making it a great platform for hunting cruisers. However, these 20in guns will not save you should you encounter lightly armored cruisers (such as Smolensk), as well as destroyers (which is a given), as the AP shells will simply over-penetrate their thin armor. Ideally, Shikishima should be played as the second or third ship in a formation, with cruisers and destroyers mopping up smaller targets, such as those aforementioned light cruisers and destroyers, giving you the time to focus on deleting CAs and BBs from the map. If worst comes to worst then Shikishima does have a pretty good array of secondaries which can whittle down destroyers.

Furthermore, with only six guns in three turrets; sustained HE spam, fires, floods, and turret destruction is her worst nightmare, as a) taking out a turret decreases firepower by a third, b) having more HP is irrelevant against fire and floods. Keep in mind that you are essentially a Yamato with larger guns. Your hull shares the same strengths and weaknesses - you can be penetrated by AP in the stern and "cheek", and being a battleship that can virtually threaten any other ship in the game regardless of armor you will be a large target for every ship in the game. In the right hands, Shikishima captains can make this ship shine in mid- to late-game, and provide valuable fire support to fellow teammates. Just keep in mind that your ability to overmatch the armor of enemy ships does not make you invincible.

Pros:

Highest per-shell alpha in the game.
Extremely good penetration with her armor piercing shells. No ship is safe from Shikishima's guns if they hit.
Armor is resistant to high-explosive shells.
Good accuracy relative to her tech tree counterpart Yamato.
Ability to overmatch 32mm plating, which is standard tier 8-10 battleship plating.
Secondaries have high fire rate with improved HE pen, similar to the Japanese gunboat DDs.
Earth splitting crack of main guns firing is unique to this ship and can be heard across the map.

Cons:

Low barrel count, with only 6 rifles.
Large citadel with a poor shape that makes her very susceptible to citadels from battleships.
Low DPM output due to lack of shells.
Poor vertical dispersion, which causes shells to go over and under the target Shikishima is firing at.
Excessive overpenetration at close range against most cruisers, leading to situations that could get the player killed.
Slow turret traverse hinders close range reactivity.

Research

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

+===Historical Inaccuracies===
+* Design A-150 was not a repeat of ''Yamato''’s hull with larger 510mm guns. No sketches of the design survive and it's likely that the hull would've been broadly similar to ''Yamato'' if the smallest 6-gun proposal (which ''Shikishima'' represents) had been built, but one known difference is that the belt was intended to be 457mm thick rather than 410mm as on ''Yamato''.
