===Pros===
* Long main battery firing range
* Access to the Rapid Takeoff Spotter consumable
* Great shell ballistics


|Performance=
===Cons===
{{AA Sidebar Warning Insert}}
* High detectability
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a Tier VII Soviet light cruiser that inherits its play style from its tech tree sister ''[[Shchors]]'' while being based upon the stock hull of ''[[Chapayev]]''.
* Weak armor
* Low maneuverability


Captains will be happy with ''{{#var:ship_name}}''’s primary firepower which comes in the form of twelve 152mm rifles with a nine second reload and excellent range of 17.3km.  The ballistics on these guns provide the opportunity to kite away and rain fire down upon enemy battleships with relative ease, making use of her unique {{Rapid Takeoff Spotter}} consumable for near constant uptime. While the guns may lag behind ''Shchors'' for damage output due to the slightly lower rate of fire, the additional effective range helps to compensate. Her AP shells have relatively high armor penetration for the caliber, meaning they can be useful against cruisers that expose their broadsides; however, her high explosive shells will still be her primary ammo choice.  Consequently, captains will want to invest in the <u>Inertial Fuse for HE Shells</u> commander skill to increase the penetration of her HE shells to 32mm.


The {{Rapid Takeoff Spotter}} of ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' compliments the ship in its intended role of a long-range light cruiser by further increasing her range to 20.7km. A unique trait of this consumable is that compared to other cruisers, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' only has a 15 second cooldown before she can use her Spotting Aircraft again.

''{{#var:ship_name}}'', like other Soviet cruisers, comes equipped a set of short range torpedoes that captains may wish to use in closer range brawls or to assassinate overly assertive battleships. These torpedoes should be considered a last-ditch weapon, though, as ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' lacks the armor to reliably deliver them within range of an enemy battleship or heavy cruiser.

Captains will find ''{{#var:ship_name}}''’s maneuverability closely resembles that of ''Shchors'', making her strong in the kiting role while the added armor affords her the chance to better sustain herself against incoming fire. The additional 4,100 hit points further increases her survivability, while she also benefits from a slight improvement in concealment. However, captains should be aware that while her armor is improved over ''Shchors'', she is still very lightly armored and caution is advised should they opt to push into close range. Her anti-aircraft battery is a slight downgrade from ''Shchors'', maintaining the same long-range and short-range firepower but reducing the damage output of her mid-range guns.

</div>


Overall, players who like ''Shchors'' and ''Chapayev'' will be right at home with ''{{#var:ship_name}}'', finding she plays in much the same way with only a few minor differences. She is best played at long range, making use of her exceptional gun ballistics and {{Rapid Takeoff Spotter}} to get the best results while actively avoiding pushing aggressively until later in the game when she is less likely to be focused by multiple ships.

Since  ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' plays similar to her tech tree counterparts, a standard build that emphasizes her survivability and main armaments is a viable options. Alternatively, captains may elect to use {{Spotting Aircraft Modification 1}} to capitalize on the kiting play-style that favors ''{{#var:ship_name}}''.

===History===
 
====Design====
The Projekt 68, or ''[[Chapayev]]''-class, was to be a class of light cruisers to accompany the new fleet of large battleships being planned by the VMF in the late 1930s, as well as to perform general defense of the homeland.
 
Initially, the design was based on the ''[[Kirov]]''-class Projekt 26 light cruisers, which itself was essentially a copy of the hull of the Italian ''Montecuccoli''-class light cruisers. The armament was changed to newer 152mm guns and the armor was improved compared to the ''Kirov''-class, but the resulting design was considered insufficient. VMF leadership requested an increase in the power of the main battery with the addition of a fourth main battery turret, and the project was finally approved on 13 July 1939 as Projekt 68. Standard displacement had increased up to 10,620 tons with a 100mm main armor belt and 50mm armor deck.
 
However, due to the outbreak of the Second World War, and later the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, the construction of the cruisers was suspended. After the end of the war, it was decided to complete the five surviving hulls (of the seven laid down) to a revised Projekt 68K. The new design would incorporate lessons learned in the Second World War, namely in regards to increased resistance to underwater damage, with enhanced stability, operational range, and anti-aircraft firepower. Likewise, there would also be an effort to fit newer radars and radio communication devices. Standard displacement of the design increased to 11,330 metric tons as a result of changes.
 
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a representation of the original Projekt 68 design.
 
The hull was double-bottomed, and divided into 19 watertight zones. The main armor belt was 100mm thick, 3.3 meters tall and 133 meters long, and closed off by transverse bulkheads – 120mm thick forward, and 100mm thick aft, extending from the height of the main armored deck to the double bottom. The main armor deck was 50mm thick, with a short 20mm extension forward of the citadel. Main battery turrets had 175mm thick faces, 65mm sides and rear, and a 75mm thick roof. Barbette armor was 130mm thick.
The ships were powered by six KV-68 boilers, which were licensed-built versions designed by Ansaldo, operating at a pressure of 26 atmospheres and a temperate of 350º C. These fed two TV-7 geared shaft turbines, each producing 55,000 shp for a total of 110,000 shp, which was sufficient for a top speed of 33.5 knots. Electrical power capacity was 1,700 kW and was in DC.
 
The main battery was twelve 152mm/57 B-38 Pattern 1938 naval rifles, individually sleeved in four MK-5 three-gun turrets. They fired 55 kg Armor-Piercing shells at a velocity of 950 m/s and 48.5 kg HE shells at 800 m/s, with a firing cycle of 8 seconds (7.5 rounds per minute). The MK-5 turrets had a traverse arc of ±150º and a maximum traverse speed of 7.2º/sec. Elevation was from -5º to +45º, with a maximum rate of 13.4º/sec. At ±45º elevation maximum elevation of the AP was 30,215 meters, and 23,720 meters for the HE.
 
The secondary battery consisted of eight 100mm/56 B-34 Pattern 1940 dual-purpose guns, mounted in four twin B-54 turrets. The rate of fire was 16 rounds per minute (3.75 second firing cycle), firing either a 15.8 kg HE shell at 895 m/s to a maximum range of 22,241 meters, or a 15.6 kg AA shell at 900 m/s to a ceiling of 10,000 meters. Elevation was from -8º to +85º with a rate of 10º/sec, and train a full 360º at a rate of 12º/sec.
Light anti-aircraft armament was  twelve 37mm/67 70-K in six twin 66-K mounts. These autocannons fired a 732 gram shell at 880 m/s with a practical rate of fire of 145 rounds per minute (160-180 rpm cyclical). Maximum ballistic range was 8400 meters, with a ceiling of 5000 meters (4000 meters effective). This was complemented with eight 12.7mm DShKM-2B in four twin mounts with a rate of fire of 600 rounds/minute.
 
The ships also carried two triple 533mm torpedo tubes and could undertake minelaying tasks, carrying 90 mines. For reconnaissance and spotting corrections, two KOP 2 seaplanes were to be carried, launched via an amidships catapult.
 
====Service====
 
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' was a member of the ''[[Chapayev]]''-class (Projekt 68) light cruisers, most of which were laid down during the Second World War, but not completed until 1950. ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' was planned to be the eleventh of fifteen sisters, to be ordered in the third Five-Year Plan and laid down in September 1941. She would have then commissioned in 1944 as part of the Pacific fleet (Tikhookeanski Flot). The place of construction would have been yard No. 199 at Komsomol'sk.  However, due to the invasion of Soviet Russia by Nazi Germany, the ship was never ordered

7,500 doubloons

Lazo — U.S.S.R. Premium Tier VII Cruiser.

The development of Project 68 began in 1937 as part of a plan to build light cruisers of a new class. It was planned to build 26 cruisers of this class between 1938 and 1947; however, not a single ship out of the seven laid down had been completed by the time World War II shook the Soviet Union. Two cruisers under construction in Mykolaiv were blown up by the Germans during their retreat.

Pros

  • Long main battery firing range
  • Access to the Rapid Takeoff Spotter consumable
  • Great shell ballistics

Cons

  • High detectability
  • Weak armor
  • Low maneuverability
