The recommended upgrades for Ishizuchi are as follows: Thankfully, her AP rounds are perfectly serviceable against enemy cruisers, due to a low chance of overpenatrating the citadel.Īs a premium ship, Ishizuchi doesn't have any upgrades to research. With a 32% base fire chance out of her HE shells, she can reliably light enemy battleships on fire and keep them burning for extended periods of time. Don't expect them to reliably penetrate enemy battleships hilariously, she is better off firing high explosive rounds at enemy battlewagons. Her 305mm armor-piercing rounds will also give players some headaches. Unfortunately, she suffers from absolutely terrible anti-aircraft defenses and almost no armor, meaning she must be careful and look at the map often for torpedo bombers and enemy battleships. She also features five (5) twin-gun turrets containing decent 305mm guns. Ishizuchi has a bearable rudder shift time of less than 13 seconds and a top speed bordering 28 knots, making her one of the faster battleships in the game.

She looks a lot like her Tier V cousin, but that's where the similarities end. At first glance, she heavily resembles the Tier V Kongo, which is largely correct: Ishizuchi is essentially a Kongo prototype. She features quite good maneuverability and speed for a battleship, but her armor simply cannot take the punishment of her contemporaries like Kaiser or Wyoming.

Ishizuchi, while marketed as a Tier IV battleship, might properly be called a battlecruiser. 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'.
