Encounter — Commonwealth Tech Tree Tier IX Cruiser.

A fast ship project based on draft designs of a cruiser with 203 mm main guns was planned for construction at an Australian dockyard in the 1920s. The outline and layout of the project partly mirrored those of the British Hawkins-class cruisers. A unique solution for its era was the arrangement of main battery artillery in triple-gun turrets.

Pros

Access to long-range Submarine Surveillance consumable and long-range Depth Charge Airstrike
Access to Crawling Smoke Generator and Hydroacoustic Search consumables

Cons

Weak armor
Low gun traverse speed
Low AA defense efficiency
