===Pros===
* High mobility: 30.0 knots top speed. Her rudder shift time and turning radius are both below-average for her tier, but this is easily compensated for
* Accurate and long-ranged heavy guns: large guns for her tier, firing slightly improved shells over [[Myōgi]] with high range and good sigma
* Comfortable overall ergonomics: Combine her high speed, distributed armour and well-arranged guns – Kongo can stay in range even in Tier VII matches

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-.".

Pros

  • High mobility: 30.0 knots top speed. Her rudder shift time and turning radius are both below-average for her tier, but this is easily compensated for
  • Accurate and long-ranged heavy guns: large guns for her tier, firing slightly improved shells over Myōgi with high range and good sigma
  • Comfortable overall ergonomics: Combine her high speed, distributed armour and well-arranged guns – Kongo can stay in range even in Tier VII matches

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
