Ship:Smolensk

X

31,000 doubloons

Smolensk — U.S.S.R. Special Tier X Cruiser.

Preliminary light cruiser projects developed in 1950 included a ship armed with four quadruple-gun 130 mm BL-132 mounts. She had the highest artillery firepower per ton of displacement and was considered a promising option to solve the assigned tasks. However, the heavy load on production facilities and the leadership's skepticism about the construction of ships with armaments that were not yet ready for production prevented these plans from coming to fruition.

Pros

• High rate of fire
• High damage per minute
• High firing accuracy
• Smoke generator consumable available

Cons

• Small HP pool
• Weak armor
