Ship:Celebes

Celebes — Netherlands Tech Tree Tier V Cruiser.

The third Java-class cruiser was laid down in Schiedam in June 1917, and she should have become the flagship of the Dutch Navy in the East Indies. It was planned to finalize her construction in 1920; however, due to the economic blockade by England and the lack of resources during wartime, the shipbuilding process had significantly slowed down. The construction of Celebes was never actually finished.

Pros

• Airstrike armament available
• Easy to shoot accurately at long ranges
• High AA defense efficiency

Cons

• Low survivability
• No Anti-Submarines armament
