Ship:HSF Hiei
V
4,000 doubloons
HSF Hiei — Japan Premium Tier V Battleship.
A nautical training ship assigned to Yokosuka Girls' Marine High School. Despite the ship's long history, she is not inferior to modern ships due to frequent remodeling.
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
