Actually, they were from 50’s iirc
Yamato isnt as protected as the base thickness would suspect, you dont need nuke shells for anything
How are you getting screwed over by not getting a blatantly overpowered shell?
I think it’s too early to say whether the Iowas will really need the nuke shells.
Neither the Iowa, nor any of its contemporaries, are in-game yet, we don’t know how they would really perform compared to one another.
Iowa’s characteristics would make it pretty similar to Scharnhorst-- extremely fast and very durable. It may not need those shells to be dominant in the future Naval meta. But we won’t know for sure until we’re there.

They absolutely should be since it’s cool and it’s necessary for the Yamato
I’m curious, how do you envision nuke shells would work in-game?
By exploding
Most definitely kms priz eugen survived a nuke
It’s really not.
I mean US naval now. It’s in quite a bad state
Go look at bikini bottom tests on uss neveda
Yeah, but there is no need to go for the nuclear option (literally) to fix that
I have a lot of event vehicles that just sit in my hanger collecting dust.
How would it deal with Yamato then? Is the AP really good enough to pen at typical ranges?
Is it? I think the US is doing far better than most at the moment
And what part of that justifies nuke shells
What do you mean?
Yeah? Shell room, reloads, no fast battleship (yet)
Of course it would help a superior tank in any line up helps. Look at what the 2A7HU has done for the Italian line up.
The thermal and night vision resolutions we have ingame are way higher than what they should be and the pods that would be available to the planes we currently have (assuming we stay period correct) would be extremely limited in their performance
