Level 3 ships have more durability and firepower configurations than Level 2 ships, making them more suitable for long-term development. With a moderate price and stable returns, they are very useful during the transition period and even in the later stages. So, which modern warship is recommended for Level 3 for casual players? For non-spending or low-spending casual players, choosing 1-2 cost-effective and highly practical Level 3 ships can quickly increase the win rate and bring resource returns, laying the foundation for subsequent development.

Peter the Great
As one of the top choices for main battle ships, it has stable performance and comprehensive weapon configuration, making it very friendly to new players. Whether it's missiles, artillery, or air defense, Peter the Great can handle them all, with quick mastery and good growth potential, making it a classic and reliable ship for long-term use.
Vella Gulf
This warship performs exceptionally well at the Level 3 stage, equipped with main guns, missiles, and helicopters, offering extremely strong tactical adaptability. It can handle air defense, control the battlefield, and engage in close combat, making it very versatile. Especially for players who seek both offensive and defensive capabilities, it is an absolutely reliable backbone, with a relatively affordable price.
Port Royal (CG-73), Nakhimov
The former has abundant missile and main gun slots, along with powerful air defense capabilities, serving as the core of long-range firepower in team battles. Nakhimov, on the other hand, focuses on burst damage, with 3 howitzers and 3 missiles capable of causing extremely high damage in a short time. Both ships are suitable for resource-limited but high-output-seeking casual players.

Ohio-class submarine, Type 096 submarine
If you like playing with submarines, these two are undoubtedly excellent choices. The Ohio has 2 torpedo and 5 missile slots, providing extremely high output when used reasonably; while the Type 096, with its 3 torpedoes and 4 missiles, forms a classic output system, featuring strong concealment, suitable for tactical ambushes, and is also a favorite among many submarine players.
Type 055 destroyer
As a representative of large destroyers, it boasts high health points, multiple slots, and a good balance between air defense and firepower. It can serve as a front-line tank and also provide sustained damage, making it very suitable as a mainstay in a casual player’s fleet. The more tactically flexible Leader-class destroyer, with its 4 missiles + 2 rockets + helicopter configuration, balances long and medium-range strikes with reconnaissance and control, fitting players who prefer versatile playstyles.
Kirov-class cruiser
Kirov packs a punch with its large-caliber main guns and RUM-139 missiles.

Admiral Gorshkov
This frigate is small in size but solidly equipped, with Zircon missiles, conventional missiles, torpedoes, and an air defense system. Its small size and long-range configuration make it excellent at evading enemy attacks and conducting long-range harassment.
F126-class frigate
Equipped with two missiles and four rocket launchers, it is very suitable for close combat. With nearly 400,000 health points, it has extremely strong survivability in close combat, and it is recommended to pair it with A22 rockets for maximum effectiveness.
DDGX
With a 3+1 missile configuration, two torpedoes, and five air defenses, although it has low health, it can still deliver excellent burst damage with X51 missiles for long-range strikes. With proper operation, it can also attempt close-range ambushes, but it is generally more suited as a long-range platform.

Zumwalt
With dual main guns and dual missiles as forward weapons, it has a significant advantage in output when combined with terrain. The similar Type 058 destroyer, although having less health, also has an all-forward weapon design paired with a railgun, providing an excellent feel and strong long-range harassment capability.
Ushakov:
This is a rare balanced ship, covering both long and short ranges, as well as air and anti-submarine operations, making it particularly suitable for new players as a mainstay during the transition period.
Leader
However, its 2+1 missile and dual torpedo configuration still offers considerable strength, and it can be used as a substitute in certain playstyles.
Sejong the Great
With gold bar bonuses, and comprehensive missile and system performance, it has a very high appearance rate in competitive events, being a high-quality warship that combines stability and output.
Ocean Avenger
Equipped with a 155mm main gun and two drones, along with four air defense lock-on modules, it can intercept air raids or sneak attacks on the enemy's backline, suitable for flexible combat.
