Player Opinion
Pros:
- Great range for a light cruiser at 17.3 km
- Improved armor compared to Shchors
- Good speed at 33.5 knots
- Great torpedo speed, damage and launch arc
- Shells that fly in a rather flat trajectory which allows leading targets easily
Cons:
- Armor still can't compare to that of her counterparts
- Being a light cruiser, it only has a 152 mm main battery and forces players to rely on HE
- Worse-than-mediocre AA
- Bad turning circle at 890 m and rudder shift time at 13.5 seconds
- Inaccurate guns for a light cruiser
