Two, in many ways they have to so it’s a playable nation. If Gaijin truly went with accuracy China and Russia would top out at like 10.7 in ground and 11.7 in air. Their technology, manufacturing base, and intellectual capital is so far behind the other nations it is impossible for them to be truly competitive.

You kinda brainwased in the terms of Russian engineering and industry.

as for if they were capable to finish it or not and how big their capabilities were that for sure is up to debate, but for whether the ship should be in game or not that doesnt matter at all does it? snail decided they gonna put laid down ships in the game and so they did. in multiple nations.

Would that have given them the opportunity to actually put it in game in a balanced state (cause most if not all of its specs were not final and could have been adjusted to actually create a somewhat balanced top tier naval)? Yes. And somehow, which is kinda mindboggling, they decided to put it in game in this state. For me theres pretty clear consequences to take from this mess. I spaded my yamato, cya naval rb you absolute abomination of a gamemode. Let soyuz shoot at soyuz and iowa shoot at iowa spawning right in each others faces together with 20 bots that all go where they want in one giant floating metal scrapyard while the match is decided by funni guy #12 in a pt boat in 5 minutes. if thats what the snail wants i see zero reason to play it.

Myself (mutsu), a Tennessee and Amagi spent the best part of 7 minutes hammering one of these things with everything we had and managed to kill about 14% of it’s crew before we all died.

I think you will have same result if you meet Iowa or Yamato.

What do you think of this impossibility then. RUSSIAN Gangut class dreadnought, Poltava, hit it repeatedly (30+) with 12" APCBC ammo at ranges between 12km to 15km with plunging hits with little or no effect. According to Janes, it ONLY has a SINGLE 3" armoured deck. The bias goes from top to bottom.

I think you have never played the yamato.

12-15km is still a bit short of a distance for effective plunging fire impact angle, which is much different than the visual impact angle of the trajectory of the shell for some reason idk, you would need to get to 18+km to have enough impact angle for effective plunging fire in this game, in Poltava case, you dont even need plunging fire, just shoot at her rearmost turret elevator and she will explode from magazine detonation since this is the magazine closest to the waterline and the internal armour is almost nonexistent to stop shrapnel from shell with decent tnt yield
