Does the Omaha C hull still add gun range, and would you recommend it?

As per title - does anyone know the answer to this?

I don't seem to remember any added range, it just takes away guns and adds AA guns.

Even though you tend to meet more carriers in the low tiers, I would not recommend it. Omaha is noticeably more fun to play with the two extra guns; the extra AA won't shred or even scare planes in the way that defensive AA does on Tier VI; and so you'll have to keep dodging air strikes anyway. I have my Murmansk (essentially a C-Hull Omaha with 8km torpedoes) built as AA-heavy as possible and not even that, with AFT and BFT commander, is a really effective plane shredder on its own.

When you left-click on the module all your ships stats (on the right side of the screen in those tabs) get updated as if you had that module mounted. Open the Artillery tab, click on the Omahas C hull and you'll see if it increases the range or not

Yes, I do belive, and emphatically yes.
