In any case, this ship, even though it’s a tier IX is gigantic as you can see here. She can deploy a squadron of five attack aircraft armed with Tiny Tim rockets. Also, they obviously modernized her anti-air to fit at tier IX. Considering the tonnage, it would appear that they are using the hull of Design A but the armament definitely belongs to Design B. In World of Warships… it looks like Wargaming pulled a bit of a kitbashing. In the end, with the situation in Europe spinning out of control, all cooperation ceased in October 1939. Later on, Gibbs and Cox would propose a… much more logical design of a normal battleship with 45 000 tons displacement, armed with ten 406 mm guns and with a maximum speed of 31 knots. To nobody’s surprise, all three proposals were refused as they were in complete violation of naval treaties and there was simply no infrastructure available to build such monsters. Project 1058.2 / C with 44,200t standard displacement, ten 406mm guns, and 28 planes.Project 1058.1 / Design B with 71,859t standard displacement, 12 406mm guns and 40 planes.Project 1058 / Design A with 66,074t standard displacement, eight 456mm guns and 40 planes.In early 1938, they delivered three different designs of a battleship-aircraft carrier hybrid with the largest displacing almost 72 000 tons: Apparently, they didn’t quite understand that the Soviets only wanted battleships and also forgot any sort of treaty limitations. Chief of Naval Operations agreed with the idea being supported by President Roosevelt. government reconsidered the idea when the Soviet ambassador brought on the table the argument that such battleship would be used to keep the Japanese Navy in check in the Pacific and, hearing this, the U.S. At some point, they also asked if the U.S.A could build battleships for them, which initially failed. The Soviets ordered turbines, as well as a license to produce said turbines back home and they, were also ready to buy U.S-built cruisers, etc. In 1937, to fulfill Stalin’s plan of a strong ocean-going fleet, the Soviet Union came to the negotiation with the USA to get support from them and overcome the limitations of the Soviet shipbuilding capabilities. In the Premium Shop, the cheapest bundle should be around 65€.Īll I have to say is that, if you already bought Carnot (or pretty much anything else) with coal, I am truly sorry for you. The ship will be available in the Armory for 228 000 coal or 19 300 doubloons. Ladies and Gentlemen, here we go with the 3rd hybrid ship added to the game, the U.S.
