Ship:Clausewitz

Clausewitz — Germany Tech Tree Tier 11 Cruiser.

The next step in the development of German raider cruisers would be to install the latest artillery. The main caliber could utilize 210 mm guns, 128 mm dual-purpose guns, 55 mm twin-gun anti-aircraft mounts, and 30 mm quad- and twin-gun mounts. In this case, the ship's displacement could exceed 20,000 tons. An upgraded combined diesel and steam-turbine electric system, surpassing the one employed in the 1930s, could provide a blend of high speed and extended range capability.

Pros

• High levels of close-range citadel protection with enhanced bow, deck, and stern armor
• HE shells with high armor penetration capabilities and AP shells with high damage
• Advanced Hydroacoustic Search consumable available

Cons

• Low top speed
• High detectability
• Short-range torpedoes
