===Pros===
* Well-armored main deck and belt 
* Secondaries fire SAP shells with improved penetration and ricochet angles  
* Access to the Exhaust Smoke Generator consumable 

===Cons===
* Main batteries use standard HE shells, not SAP shells 
* Low health pool
* Poorly armoured citadel, very vulnerable when showing broadside
