Tier V · Battleship · Germany
Rating D (Bottom tier within its tier and class · overall score 2) · Stealthy battleship
Stealthy battleship. It is weak against battleships (HE deals a same-tier battleship's HP in about 17 min on paper). Detectability of 8.88 km is 1.5 km below average, so it is less likely to be spotted first. Secondary DPM of 24,304 is 21% above average, strong up close. Key skills: Secondary Overload I ×2 (secondary reload +25%, secondary range +20%, 15 s). Its firepower trails other battleships, so be selective and punish broadsides.
