Should be noted that japanese radar tech generally lagged behind other powers; Even their best radar was considerably worse than what was fielded by the US.
Fusou and Yamashiro, with their lack of radar (or at the very least; very poor radar), wandered into a kill box set up by the americans. Both ships were blown out of the water.
While the A140s had radar, it wasn’t linked to fire control - Which would hamper target acquisition.
How much this would hamper target acquisition is a different story as Yamato hit USS White Plains at 30km.
Yeah, basically the radar was working but they had not completed its integration with the fire solution computer in the fire control room. It basically just provided the same estimates an optical fire director would, with just more accurate information from a radar.
@Morvran I believe @TheRealSteve is to a degree referencing integrated fire control and primarily RPC which was something that was only introduced on Vanguard and planned to be installed on the KGV’s before the prominent actions of Germany forced them to be rushed into service with RPC planned for later.
Whilst I’d contend Vanguard until the Korean war had a better radar suite and fire control system, paired with more accurate guns (until the reactivation modernisations). The advantage of RPC is one unique to the US.
Lol. I mean modernization of the Type 284 fire control radar, not Prince of Wales. It was not fully completed and production ready until 1942. Sorry, confusion with other ships.
staying with 6.7 because of this, they also spoiled r6 mobile with a Russian vehicle, missile fights were fun then they put in the Lun Class and it’s a total joke, even gave it the most effective ECM type along with missiles that are harder to counter, lel
And changed the scouts on Russian ships? but France still has those really slow awkward to land ones on most ships, never mind that the Italian scout crashes itself in ways no other does, and the Walrus goes way to high.
Also the Tu-2 gets all it’s bombs from a single t2 mod, also lel
How to kill this annoying thing? I’ve just had a battle against a squad of 2 Soyuzes, one had 9 kills, another 4 without deaths, our entire team managed to get only 3 kills, because of these 2 enemies.
Turret 3 is allegedly the weakpoint - I haven’t labbed it since I don’t have a friend to test it.
Yamatos can straight up nuke it through the bow at 15km but it’s a gamble and if you’re in a Yamato class you’re probably dead anyway since Gaijin has done her so dirty.
Do not believe the in-game X-ray of the magazines; the visual model is borrowed from the Kronshtadt and the hitbox is what you’d actually expect for 40.6cms, it is - however - just like Iowa in that you have to get through three different armored decks to actually hit ammunition if you’re trying to plunging fire it.
Pretty easy answer: You dont. Well maybe if you have two top tier allies helping you but chances are you still go down as well. Do yourself a favor, chose the easy way out and just dont play the trash that is top tier naval rb.
Really, there is no point trying to win matches, or trying to challenge a battleship at the same br, with multiple times your effectiveness, same multipliers and same repaircost. Surely something will be done to sort of balance the situation at 8.7 soon, right?? RIGHT??? Like soft nerf stats that gaijin uses to balance vehicles…like reload…or repaircosts…any moment now…
Bro are you stupid? Like it’s actually soooo easy!!! All you have to do it’s get 25 He 111 all armed with Fritz Xs and do synchronized attack!! Like bro it’s not that hard!!!
SKR-7 often more than 2x anyone else on their team too
Whatever statistical analysis they are doing is utter rubbish, and they can’t even remove air strike mods from tanks so what does that say about their ability to do basic tasks on the code.
Complete lack testing yet they keep adding new vessels
after however long it takes the fantasy ussr ship players will claim it never was like that at all too lol, it’s crazy we got another faker ship before tirpitz but hey we finally get a missile destroyer for German blue water ig
Gneisenau has 38cm SKCs she was never equipped with in real life.
Soyuz is the only ship in the Russian naval tree - when compared to same BR ships - that is overperforming because of weird armor quirks that Iowa also has (three layered decks) and I’d argue Soyuz is so strong because she doesn’t have a shellroom below the turret like a certain japanese battleship.
We had Scharnhorst dominating naval from its introduction up until Leviathans dropping. I highly doubt Soyuz will last nearly as long in its current state.
