How is the modern warship Kirov? A detailed explanation of the Kirov's strength in modern warships.

For military enthusiasts, Kirov is definitely a very prominent name. This nuclear-powered cruiser from the Soviet Union was once an absolute symbol of strength in its era. It also garners interest from many players when it appears in modern warships. Today, I will talk about how the Kirov performs in modern warships. Next, I will provide a detailed introduction to this warship's firepower, survivability, and tactical value.

First, let's take a look at the basic attributes of the Kirov hull: 507,000 hit points, speed of 21.98 knots, maneuverability of 8.75, radar range of 8 kilometers, detection range of 3.33 kilometers, and sonar range of 1.6 kilometers. From these attributes, it can be seen that the maneuverability is quite poor. Due to the poor maneuverability, the handling feels somewhat stiff, which many new players may not adapt to.

The missiles are all front-mounted vertical launch systems, while the main guns are all rear-mounted. The rocket launchers are arranged with one in the front and two in the back, and the anti-aircraft guns are evenly distributed throughout the ship. This layout is somewhat contradictory in combat. If you expose the bow, the main guns do not have enough firing arcs, and the rear-mounted rocket launchers can easily hit the terrain. If you engage from the rear, the missiles can also easily hit the terrain. Additionally, due to its large target area, exposing too much of the ship can lead to being focused by the enemy. In terms of positioning, it is advisable to use complex terrain for support, stay in the back row for damage output, and only move forward to hold the line after your teammates have done most of the work. Rushing in too early can easily result in being focused and quickly destroyed.

In actual combat, there are still some advantages. The Kirov focuses on long-range attacks, using its dual main guns, three rocket launchers, and guided missiles to deliver powerful firepower at a distance. It can ignore certain interferences and force hits on targets, posing a significant threat to all enemy warships. With numerous anti-aircraft weapons, it has strong defensive capabilities against aerial attacks. The disadvantages are also quite evident. Apart from the stiff handling mentioned above, it does not carry torpedoes, and its close-range burst is weak, lacking effective weapons at close quarters. If the enemy attacks at point-blank range, the Kirov will be in a difficult situation.

The above content is my answer today to the question of how the Kirov performs in modern warships. After clarifying the strengths and weaknesses of this ship, the choice depends on everyone's needs. There is no perfect vehicle in the game; as long as you can leverage its strengths and minimize its weaknesses, it can meet your needs.
