All made in the 1980s, surely.

 

When you think of it in terms that Sahara desert has richer naval history than Russia, then yeah, most of them will be pure fantasy both in terms of historical accuracy and in-game effectiveness.

I think Tier V is the last ship that got finished before end of WW2.

The rest is paper or came after WW2.

My Russian is bad (i.e. non-existent) but it looks like this does nothing above say 'SN cruisers are on their way' and name them.  Does it say anything about when they arrive e.g. 0.5.4?

Lol, the tier X is the Moskva. According to wiki the keel was laid in 1976. Missiles anyone?

Soon it will start a chain of combat missions by 23 February. After completing all of them, you will get three slots. So go for it! -)

This is not the Moskva you are referring to. It is a paper ship, very different that the one that was laid down in 1976.

The names as I read them:

Bogatyr

Svetlana

Kirov (not the nuclear one... too bad)

Budienny

Shors (not sure about this one... big Whiskey Tango Foxtrot moment)

Chapaev

Dimitri Donskoy

Moskva ofc

 

Happy Wiki search, but don't mess up the ships with the same name!

Wait a minute! So the tier VIII is not the Sverdlov-class (aka "Mikhail Kutuzov") but the Chapayev-class, a predecessor of sorts.


Link here for details of the class (Project 68). Also check this thread.

Correct me, if I'm wrong, but I think that Moskva is the almost finished (...) Project 82. Which in fact, was a BC. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalingrad-class_battlecruiser

Stalingrad2vew.jpg

With 3x3x12". Isn't WG's rule that nothing over 8" qualifies as CA guns? (Remember the german ships...)

 

Now, where is my Alaska class BC?
