Ipiranga — Pan-America Tech Tree Tier VIII Battleship.

A hypothetical design for a Brazilian Navy battleship developed based on British shipbuilding advancements of the 1920s and 1930s. The ship would feature dual-purpose and anti-aircraft armament of American origin, likely received during modernization in the U.S. in the 1940s.

Pros

• Modified secondary munitions combat instructions available,
• Secondaries with improved penetration, range, and damage per minute.
• Able to fire all guns from a sharp angle.

Cons

• Low Rate of Fire for the main guns.
• Small caliber of main guns for the tier.
• Citadel may be vulnerable from certain angles.

Ship Change Log

• Preliminary Characteristics.
• Update 13.6:
  • Available for testing by supertesters in the game starting from Update 13.6.
• Update 13.7
  • Main battery reload time increased: 30s to 33s
  • Combat instructions parameters changed:
• Combat Instructions parameters changed — Action time reduced from 45 to 30 s. — Progress per main battery shell hit increased from 4% to 6.5%. — Secondary battery firing range increased from 10% to 20%. — Added bonus to secondary battery reload: -15%.
  • Main battery turret traverse time reduced: 45 to 30s.
    • Changed maneuverability parameters:
    • Turning circle radius reduced: 920 to 820m.
    • Stock hull Rudder shift time increased: 15.7 to 16.9s.
    • Researchable hull Rudder shift time reduced: 15.7 to 11.1s.
• Update 13.8:
  • Ship engine parameters changed. Acceleration characteristics significantly improved. The ships will now have similar acceleration to that found on Vermont and St. Vincent.
  • Access to Propulsion Modification 1 was removed due to it becoming redundant.
• Update 14.3:
  • Fixed an issue where researchable hull upper belt was thicker than that of the stock hull.
  • Engine parameters changed. The ship will retain enhanced acceleration parameters but will no longer be able to sustain high speed during turns.
