Soviet cruiser Dmitry Pozharsky has been added to the game for testing.
Soviet cruiser Dmitry Pozharsky, Tier VIII
The Project 68-bis cruiser Dmitry Pozharsky was laid down in Leningrad at plant No. 189 in February 1952, launched in June 1953, and commissioned in December 1954. In February 1955 she was integrated into the Northern Fleet, but in the summer of that year, she was transferred to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, becoming part of the 14th cruiser division of the Pacific Fleet. In 1961, she was transferred to the 9th division of anti-submarine ships, and in 1967 – to the 10th operational squadron, permanently located in the Indian Ocean.
The ship is armed with twelve 152mm main battery guns which use only AP shells with improved ricochet angles and flat ballistics. The Cruiser is also armed with torpedoes with very short range. The ship deals high damage per minute and also has quick rudder shift time. The cruiser also has bad concealment.
The consumables are represented by Short-Burst Smoke Generator and Hydroacoustic Search or Defensive AA Fire in one slot.
