Austin Tier X American Light Cruiser 1944
A light cruiser project (CL-154) that was developed at the end of World War II. The ship's main armament comprised the latest 127 mm dual-purpose mounts.
X Austin is a U.S. cruiser that was designed at the end of World War II. The ship is armed with twelve dual-purpose 127 mm guns in six turrets, and carries two quintuple-tube torpedo launcher mounts. The cruiser has an unlimited number of charges for the Main Battery Reload Booster consumable, which reduces the reload time of her guns by 75% instead of the standard 50%. She also has the Hydroacoustic Search and Defensive AA Fire consumables in separate slots. Her AA defenses are efficient, and she’s armed with SAP shells instead of AP shells. | Austin Memorable Flag The coat of arms of Austin, the capital city of Texas, contains an image of a lamp of knowledge that symbolizes the largest university. The shield in the flag colours is crowned with a Latin cross from the private coat of arms of Stephen Austin, the "Father of Texas." |
