However, at tier 8, the gun caliber on battleships begins to increase. At first, this seems like a welcome upgrade from its much less armored predecessor.
The only parts of the ship that are not 25mm include the armor belt, which is and the superstructure, which is 13mm.
They are good for rushing cruisers, as their alpha strike is almost 18,000, and just three hits will destroy most same tier cruisers.Ĭhapayev is coated in 25mm of armor. These torpedoes should only be used in an emergency situation, as they have a 4km range. In addition, Chapayev carries two quadruple racks of torpedoes. Her turrets turn slowly for a cruiser, taking 25 seconds to turn a full 180 degrees. Compared to same-tier Cleveland, Chapayev fires nearly 2 fewer salvos per minute with near identical alpha damage. However, her overall damage per minute is less than average. The fire chance allows for consistent damage over time, while the penetration of the high explosive allows for consistent damage. Against lower tier battleships with 27mm plating, Chapayev also does well. She excels at dealing with destroyers and other cruisers of the same tier thanks to the blistering 950m/s shell velocity. The base reload is 8 seconds, with a fire chance of 12%, and base HE pen of 30mm. Paired with her twelve, high velocity 152mm guns, Chapayev is a menace to destroyers and other cruisers.Ĭhapayev’s main battery is arranged in four turrets, each containing 3 guns, for a total of twelve. She is one of the few ships with the ability to stealth radar. And she adds a 12km Surveillance Radar consumable. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.įor a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".Ĭhapayev is an upgrade over her predecessor, tier VII Shchors, possessing increased armor and nearly doubling in anti-aircraft fire capabilities.
