Missouri — U.S.A. Premium Tier IX Battleship.

USS Missouri, the third Iowa-class battleship, was laid down in 1941 and launched three years later. During World War II, she served in the Pacific Theater. On September 2, 1945, the Japanese Instrument of Surrender was signed on the battleship. Between 1950 and 1953, the ship participated in the Korean War. In 1984, the battleship was modernized—guided missiles were installed. In 1991, she participated in Operation Desert Storm. Missouri received 11 battle stars for her service; she is now a museum ship in Pearl Harbor.

Ship Change Log

• Update 0.5.15:
  • Available for testing by supertesters in the game starting from Update 0.5.15.
• Update 0.5.15.1:
  • Added to the tech tree for 750,000 Free Experience.
• Update 0.6.0:
  • Fixed the bug where the AA mount on the main turret disappeared after the turret had been destroyed. Fixed missing rangefinders of main guns/turrets. Added platforms near radars for rangefinders.
• Update 0.6.5:
  • Barrel jacket color corrected from light to dark for higher historical accuracy.
• Update 0.6.6:
  • The citadel was lowered: now the roof is almost at waterline level. The vacant place where the citadel was was filled with casemates, which increased their volume. Therefore, there was a slight redistribution of HP: part of the HP was moved evenly from fore and aft ends and superstructures to the central part of the ship's casemates.
• Update 0.6.12:
  • Detectability when firing main guns in smoke changed to 15.64 km.
• Update 0.6.13:
  • The survivability of air defense weapons was tested and brought to a single standard. The change affects 40mm guns.
• Update 0.6.15:
  • A bonus was added to the Type 10 permanent camouflage: a -20% discount to the cost of post-battle maintenance.
• Update 0.7.2:
  • The animation with Steven Seagal in the port was removed.
  • Missouri was removed from the tech tree.
• Update 0.7.4:
  • Fixed the description of the special features of the battleship.
• Update 0.7.6:
  • Minor fixes to geometry and textures
• Update 0.8.1.1:
  • The range of the Surveillance Radar consumable was corrected to be 9.5 km instead of 10 km. The correct value of 9.5 km was noted in the article and erroneously increased in Update 0.8.1.
• Update 0.9.6:
  • The turning circle radius displayed in port was changed from 920 m to 990 m to match the in-game parameter.
• Update 0.10.0:
  • The firing range of the secondary battery was increased to 6.95 km.
• Update 0.10.7:
  • The ship returned to the premium shop as part of the "Pacific War" event, in a variant that now earns the standard amount of credits per battle for a Tier IX premium ship.
  • For players who owned the ship before this update, a permanent combat mission was added that gives +30% credits for every battle in the ship.
• Update 0.10.9:
  • Fixed an error that occasionally caused the main battery shell ballistics to be calculated incorrectly (much higher trajectory).
• Update 0.11.6:
  • The combat mission for +30% credits was removed. Instead, owners received an improved permanent Credit bonus of +40% instead of the default +10%.
• Update 12.0:
  • Improved the geometry and textures of the ship.
