Roon CLR - German Tier IX Cruiser 1938
In contrast to her predecessors, she was larger in size and carried much stronger AA defenses. Apart from that, she had more main battery guns that were also positioned in a different manner. As a result, the majority of the cruiser's firepower is concentrated on her stern.
The permanent camouflage for this version of Roon is called Azure Lightning.
