Tier IV · Cruiser · U.S.S.R.
Rating C+ (Lower-mid within its tier and class · overall score 38) · Long-range cruiser
Long-range cruiser, suited to DD hunting. Sluggish turning means you must start turning early to dodge shells and torpedoes. Its weak detectability (7.5 km) drops to 6.67 km with a stealth/mobility equipment build (at −5% HP). Detectability of 7.5 km is 0.44 km above average, so it gets spotted early; move behind islands.
