Ship:Kozma Minin

IX

21,500 doubloons

Kozma Minin — U.S.S.R. Premium Tier IX Cruiser.

A hypothetical project for a heavy cruiser and one of the development options for Project 65. In the 1940s, the U.S.S.R. was actively designing new types of ships, even utilizing German technologies they managed to gain access to. Among the ideas that never ended up seeing the light of day was a project for a cruiser with 203 mm armament, similar to that of the German Admiral Hipper-class cruisers.

Pros

• High top speed
• High main battery firing rate
