ARP Kongō — Japan Premium Tier V Battleship.

A Fleet of Fog battleship modeled after the lead ship of the Imperial Japanese Navy's Kongō-class battleships, Kongō. As the flagship of the First Oriental Fleet, her Mental Model—Kongō—honors the Admiralty Code above all else. She seeks to eliminate the submarine I-401, who chose to deviate from the Code. This warship has been modeled after Kongō as she appears in "ARPEGGIO OF BLUE STEEL -ARS NOVA-.".

Cons

Relatively thin armour: Her main belt of only 203mm thickness renders her vulnerable to large-calibre enemy AP, despite her distributed armour scheme
Limited damage output: Only 8 guns with an average reload. Place your shots wisely
Poor concealment: Her default detectability by sea is 15.7km. You are again not hiding your vessel’s pagoda mast
