Adatara — Japan Tech Tree Tier IX Battleship.

Following the announcement of an ambitious shipbuilding program by the U.S. in 1919, Japan reconsidered the plans for the development of its Navy and gave the order to build four more battleships and four more battlecruisers. Thirteen variants of battleships and battlecruisers were presented. Project A was selected to become the Kii-class battleship, and Project K was used for the battlecruiser. Construction was meant to start in 1922, but the battlecruisers were never laid down in the aftermath of the Washington Naval Conference.

Pros

• Low Concealment
• Access to High-Precision Spotter plane consumable

Ship Change Log

• Preliminary characteristics.
• Sigma value reduced from 2.2 to 2.1.
• Changed the accuracy of 100 mm secondary guns and now it will be more similar to Japanese battleships.
• Changed characteristics of the Spotting Aircraft with high-precision optics — Bonus to maximum main battery shell dispersion decreased from -20% to -10%. — Consumable action time decreased from 65 to 55 s.
• Update 12.7:
  • Available for testing by supertesters in the game starting from Update 12.7.
• Update 12.9:
  • Available from sequential bundle #5 of the Japanese Battleships event (for Japanese Tokens).
  • The Kuraokami permanent camouflage was added.
• Update 12.11:
  • Added to the game as a researchable ship in Update 12.11.
• Update 13.3:
  • Fixed textures and geometry for the New Year permanent camouflage for the ship.
• Update 14.0:
  • HE shell ballistic parameters changed. This will result in the flight trajectory becoming flatter, identical to that of the AP shells of the ships.
