This thing better have an autoloader to send more than 1 shell per 30 minutes down range ;-) also good luck aligning that gun when theres any kind of rolling on the ship. But good proposal otherwise^^
You think they came up with Turm 3 out of nothing?
True. Though 3 axis stabilizer on such a giant gun while in rough seas would look hilarious. Now pls leak blueprint of 15 of these on Kaneda’s 500 000 ton monstrosity and pictures and proof of that blueprint being laid down and im yours forever xD
Definitely: ground you can go as deep or wide as you feasibly need.
On a ship you’re vastly limited by space, ammunition placement and other such logistical issues to get the shells to the breaches.
My opinion is if there isn’t enough real world data and you’re stuck referencing solely proposed paper stats, it’s open season on balancing as necessary for the health of the game.
For example: Pr23 can stand to lose a decent chunk of explosive filler and a slight overall armor nerf and she’d still be extremely strong.

If we’re taking soyuz as a bare minimum for implementation…
Spoiler
Looks laid down to me

If that is one of those faulty rivets in the keel it could at least be replaced rather easily at this stage of the project^^
EDIT: Oh no, just saw now, this is the start of the laid down keel of IJN Zipang? Can it be? :-D

I was expecting a bed ngl
By gaijin’s qualification, what is a ship?
Is it an object that floats? Or is a mere idea of a ship makes one? Like friend-ship, you know.
For as long as we assume that soyuz has been able to be built with not a single compromise and design change due to how poor soviet engineering and building was, or how poor were their resources - we could safely assume that 1 more year into the war and Germany would’ve rolled out Ratte.

There was a lot more than one rivet laid.
In historical sense - it’s the same
It isn’t as a fair bit of work was put into the hull.
Basically every single country represented in the naval trees present in WT had a better naval industry compared to the USSR at the start of WW2 (yes, even Italy and France)
And it makes sense, russia does not have a lot of access to sea and when it does, it’s blocked by ice half the time (well used to anyway).
Cold war is where USSR’s shipyards got pretty good.
WW2 and modern days are/were more complicated though

Work? Soviets can’t do that.
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
Both were laid down around the same time roughly.
Yamato 1937
SovetSky 1939
An invasion does make a lot of changes to wartime doctrine depending on what kind of war it is.
I don’t know the full history of Soviet naval building off hand.
But constantly people say or have said during WW2 russia couldn’t do this or that. Couldn’t make good tanks etc etc.
But on practically a whim they shaped their production to fight a German invasion.
Counter point. Due to Japanese tanks being very poor in WW2 not only in design, but reliability, (mainly because most of its gdp was spent on naval and aircraft) should we too nerf and or chat about those?
Japan has a lot of fake tanks, and tanks that quite outperform their real life counterparts.
I wasn’t talking specifically in the sense of naval building. Rather it’s general capacity
But what does that have to do with naval industrial capabilities? Its not like you can build a battleship in a repurposed tractor factory. Shipbuilding especially military shipbuilding is a highly specalised industry even today.
