Heavy cruiser with 234-mm main caliber artillery mounted in three four-gun turrets. The ship is equipped only with AP-shells with improved ricochet angles and low fuse delay.
The ship’s equipment are “Hydroacoustic Search”, “Repair Party” and “Smoke Generator” in separate slots.
The ship is most effective at medium and short-range combat due to her powerful AP-shells and her flat-topped ballistics, as well as her smoke-screen firing.
