Later, an agreement was signed with the German company Krupp, which was supposed to deliver six turrets before March 1943.

Tier X cruiser ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' shares many traits with both Tier IX German cruiser ''[[Siegfried]]'' and real-life sister ship ''[[Kronshtadt]]''. Planned as the second ''Kronshtadt''-class cruiser using 380mm ''Bismarck''-class guns purchased from the Germans, she inherits many of ''Kronshtadt’s'' strengths and weaknesses. Her consumable suite sets her apart, and most notably she inherits ''Siegfried’s'' cruiser dispersion, giving her the most accurate large caliber guns in the game.
===Cons===
* Con 1
* Con 2


<h4>Armament</h4>


Like ''Kronshtadt'' and ''Siegfried'' at Tier IX, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is primarily about her guns. She carries six 380mm guns in three twin turrets, the same as found on ''Siegfried'' and Tier VIII battleship ''[[Bismarck]]''. Along with ''Siegfried'', she has the largest main battery guns on any cruiser in the game, and maintains ''Siegfried’s'' cruiser dispersion trait rather than the battlecruiser dispersion on many other large cruisers. Combined with their 25mm AP overmatch, she is a major threat to any broadside target and many cruisers won’t be able to angle against her shells provided her aim is true.

Her main battery range is high for a cruiser, similar to ''[[Alexander Nevsky]]'' and ''[[Henri IV]]'', and slightly shorter than ''[[Moskva]]''. However, her 24 second main battery reload is the longest in her tier, only two seconds faster than ''Bismarck'' and ''Siegfried''. As a result, she has the lowest main battery DPM of any Tier X cruiser. With her low barrel count, she will struggle against destroyers and sharply angled targets that she can’t overmatch. Her turret traverse is also slow at 36 seconds, the same as ''[[Ship:Stalingrad|Stalingrad]]'' and her German counterparts, and only marginally faster than ''[[Petropavlovsk]]''. She has slightly improved firing angles to both the front and rear, allowing her to get all guns on target while still bouncing almost all return fire off her main belt.

Both her HE and AP shells are similar to those found on ''Siegfried'' and ''Bismarck'', although ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' deals slightly more HE damage but slightly less AP damage. She also has less shell drag, so her shells fly faster than her German gun cousins. Both shell types have the highest damage of any Tier X cruiser, and her HE shells also feature an excellent fire chance. She has the same improved AP pen angles and slightly shorter fuse time as ''Petropavlovsk'', reducing her chances of overpenetrating a target or bouncing off slightly angled armor. Thanks to her improved ballistics, she has more AP penetration than her German 380mm counterparts, although ''Stalingrad'' still penetrates more thanks to her increased shell velocity.

If her main battery wasn’t enough to set ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' apart from other cruisers, her consumable suite is also unusual. In addition to the standard Hydroacoustic Search or Defensive AA Fire consumable option that most cruisers get, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' also has a unique Heavy Repair Teams, an Engine Boost, and the Fast Damage Control Team consumable rather than the normal Damage Control Party.

''{{#var:ship_name}}'s'' {{Fast Damage Control Team}} is similar to those found on the Russian battleships and German battlecruisers. The significantly faster cooldown leaves her less vulnerable to full duration fires or floods after repairing, but the limited charges can run out quickly if players don’t use them selectively. And unlike the battleships, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' only has three charges by default. With her 60 second duration fires and higher damage per second floods like other large cruisers, choosing which fires and floods to stop can be critical.

''{{#var:ship_name}}'s'' {{Heavy Repair Teams}} is her most unique consumable. It heals more penetration damage than any other Repair Party in the game, and shares the same 50% citadel damage heal as the British {{Specialized Repair Teams}} on ''[[Minotaur]]'' and ''[[Goliath]]''. It also features a substantially longer active time, running more than two times longer at 60 seconds. However, it also has the longest cooldown time, more than a minute and a half longer than the standard consumable. When it’s active, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' can absorb and heal a substantial amount of damage, but while it’s on cooldown she can easily get focused down waiting for the next charge.


Her {{Engine Boost}} consumable shares the same +20% boost to top speed as found on the French cruisers. Its cooldown time is faster at only 60 seconds, but the short 45 second action time limits its usefulness.

Fitting her size, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' isn’t particularly agile. Both among large cruisers and cruisers in general at Tier X, her 33.5 knot top speed is average at best. With her Engine Boost consumable active, she can temporarily become one of the fastest cruisers in her tier at just over 40 knots, but its short duration limits her speed potential. Additionally, her rudder shift and turning circle are both among the worst in tier. Her turning circle is marginally better than those of ''Moskva'' and ''Stalingrad'', comparable to ''Petropavlovsk’s'', and her rudder shift is slower than all cruisers except ''[[Puerto Rico]]''. Most notably, her rudder shift and turning circle are worse than ''Kronshtadt'' a tier lower, despite sharing a similar hull.


Unlike many other cruisers, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' can’t swing out to get guns on target and angle before the return fire arrives. Choosing the right angle to bounce shells before getting shot at is important. Her Engine Boost can help her get onto a flank quickly or run away from a strong push, but doesn’t provide the same dodging or relocation potential as on the French cruisers.

''{{#var:ship_name}}'' has an impressive health pool for a Tier X cruiser, although it’s on the low end compared to other large cruisers. She also presents a large target, and her main battery threat will draw the attention of enemy ships. Her unique heal gives her a large potential health pool, but the long cooldown limits how much she’ll actually be able to heal back. Unlike ''Stalingrad'' and many other large cruisers, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' should avoid sustained fire whenever possible. Her respectable concealment compared to other large cruisers will help keep her alive, but among all Tier X cruisers or concealment is only average.

Like other large cruisers, fires burn for 60 seconds and floods deal twice as much damage per second. With her limited Fast Damage Control Team consumable, fires and floods pose a significant risk to her survival. As she lacks access to battleship survival skills like <u>Fire Prevention</u> and <u>Basics of Survivability</u>, signals and upgrades to reduce fire and flood damage are essential.
'''Continuous damage''' — average DPS within each action zone
 
{| class="wikitable" style="margin:0 0 0.8em 0; width:100%; color:inherit;"
Although she carries battleship guns, her armor is still that of a cruiser. Her bow and stern are 25mm thick, and her deck and upper belt are only 30mm. She lacks the thicker deck and 50mm icebreaker plates found on other Russian heavy cruisers, so battleship AP and cruiser HE pose a much greater threat. She carries a thick main belt that extends well past her turrets, but her citadel also extends just as far. Unlike ''Moskva'' and ''Stalingrad'', ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' share’s ''Kronshtadt’s'' waterline citadel and spaced armor. Broadside hits will still result in citadel hits, but some shells can bounce or detonate early when sufficiently angled.

Unlike the other Russian cruisers, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'s'' AA defenses are underwhelming. Most notably, she lacks the improved range typical of Tier X Russian cruisers, only reaching 5.8km on her long range mounts. Her mid range damage is slightly above average, but her long range defenses provide little protection, and she has no short range defenses. Her flak is also among the worst in her tier. She produces less flak than many other cruisers, and each explosion deals little damage.
| style="color:inherit;" | Long-range || style="color:inherit;" | 129.5 || style="color:inherit;" | 90% || style="color:inherit;" | 5.8
 
|}
Additionally, she has few AA mounts for her size. With only 14 mounts, losing more than a couple will noticeably reduce her defenses. Sustained HE fire will quickly destroy her mid range mounts, leaving her nearly defenseless against enemy planes.
 
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' can swap her Hydroacoustic Search for the Defensive AA Fire consumable to increase her continuous AA and flak damage, but it will still offer little improvement. And with her already lackluster AA defenses and poor agility, the extra warning for incoming torpedoes will often be more useful.
 
<h4>Battle performance</h4>
 
Like ''Siegfried'', ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a cruiser killer that wants to be on a flank. Her massive guns and improved AP penetration potential allow her to punish broadsides and force a crossfire, but her damage potential drops as soon as her targets start to angle if she can’t overmatch them. She lacks the utility and durability of her Russian heavy cruiser counterparts, limiting her usefulness outside of pure damage dealing. Her consumable suite is unique and allows some interesting gameplay when she can take advantage of it, but they don’t always synergize too well with her hull.
 
In most situations, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' relies on enemy ships cooperating to be effective. And when they don’t cooperate, there’s very little she can do for her team. She has the potential to choose her fights and contribute a lot to her team’s flank, but requires a thorough understanding of the game and sometimes a healthy amount of luck to reach her true potential.

[[File:Kronshtadt_Under_Construction_June_1942.jpeg|none|frame|x285px|link=|Russian cruiser ''Kronshtadt'' under construction, as viewed during a Luftwaffe aerial reconnaissance flight on 1 June 1942.]]
 
The ''Kronshtadt''-class battlecruisers (Project 69) started as a mid-1930s proposal for a large cruiser capable of destroying 10,000 long-ton cruisers built under the Washington Naval Treaty (which the Soviets were not a signatory to). Early designs were submitted by the end of 1935 but were all rejected, as was the next design for a 22,637 long-ton, 254mm-armed cruiser (eventually designated Project 22). After signing the Anglo-Soviet Quantitative Act of 1937 which bound them to the terms of the Second London Naval Treaty, the idea was eventually shelved. Other designs and plans were considered through early 1938 until the program was canceled after deciding the final design was too weak compared to foreign ships. However, the Soviet Navy still felt a need for a fast ship capable of fighting enemy cruisers, and the original concept was revived as Project 69.
 
After various redesigns, the State Defense Committee ended up with a 30,510 long-ton, 305mm armed cruiser that was submitted to the State Defense Council and approved in January 1939. The initial sketches were approved in mid July 1939, but detailed designs were not approved until 12 April 1940, after the first two hulls were laid down. By February 1940, the 305mm guns and turrets were already behind schedule, and Joseph Stalin attempted to negotiate with the German representatives in Moscow to purchase and use triple 283mm turrets (which were out of production) instead of the triple 305mm turrets as planned. When he was told they were no longer in production but new ones could be built, he asked if twin 380mm turrets could be used instead. A preliminary agreement was made to purchase twelve guns and six turrets that had initially been designed to rearm the ''Scharnhorst''-class battleships, and finalized in November 1940 after it was determined to be a possible substitution. Deliveries were scheduled between October 1941 and March 1943. The required changes to the Project 69 design added an additional 984 long-tons to the ship, and was completed in mid October 1940 as Project 69-I (I standing for "''Importnyi''" or "Imported"). The final design was supposed to be completed by 15 October 1941, but was rendered pointless when Germany launched Operation Barbarossa and invaded the Soviet Union in June of that year.
 
The two initial ships (''Kronshtadt'' and ''Sevastopol'') were supposed to be laid down in September 1939 following the Project 69-I design, but construction was delayed until November to allow shipyard improvements to be completed as the Soviet shipbuilding industry proved to be incapable of building both cruisers at the same time as the four ''Sovetsky Soyuz''-class battleships. ''Sevastopol'' was laid down on 5 November 1939, and was estimated at 11.6% complete at the start of the invasion. When the German forces occupied Nikolayev in late 1941, they used some of her material for defensive positions. Before they evacuated the city, they damaged her slip and hull with explosives, rendering the ship a total loss. She was ordered scrapped on 24 March 1947, and dismantling was completed in 1948.

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

In May 1940, the Naval Academy hosted tactical games that involved the Project 69 cruiser and battleships Scharnhorst and Dunkerque. The event showed that the replacement of 305 mm guns with German 380 mm guns significantly increased the cruiser's firepower. Later, an agreement was signed with the German company Krupp, which was supposed to deliver six turrets before March 1943. The turrets were to be mounted on cruisers Kronshtadt and Sevastopol, which were planned to be launched in 1942, but the outbreak of war canceled these plans.
