Komissar: Tier X Soviet Russian Hybrid Cruiser 1935 (How to obtain)

In the 1930s, as the Soviet fleet was undergoing active construction, designers were notably proactive in their projects. The envisioned ship was to be outfitted with twelve 240 mm main guns and twelve 130 mm secondary battery guns. As a hybrid vessel in the game, it is also designed to deploy aircraft equipped with rockets.

Commemorative Flag

Komissar Commemorative Flag

Military komissars first appeared in the RSFSR in 1918. In 1925, unity of command was established over both the Red Army and Red Fleet. For much of this period, the naval flag of the RSFSR was a red cloth with braids, depicting a star and an anchor.

 

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Firepower: Komissar boasts 12x240mm guns, which deliver a substantial HE salvo with cruiser dispersion.
• Effective Against Certain Cruisers: The 240mm HE shells can penetrate 40mm of armor, making Komissar effective against cruisers like Petro, Napoli, and Marseille that are HE-resistant.
• Hybrid Capability: While the planes are not a primary focus, the tactical rocket planes can be useful for supporting your team.

Cons:

• Vulnerable Armor: Komissar’s 30mm deck and upper hull armor make her susceptible to battleship AP and cruiser HE. Engaging in gunfights can result in significant damage.
• Low Hit Points: With only 43,800 hit points, Komissar has the lowest HP pool among T10 Soviet heavy cruisers, even less than Nevsky.
• Lack of Radar: Komissar lacks radar access, which may impact her situational awareness.

 

Gameplay

• Avoid Slugging Matches: Komissar’s vulnerable armor makes her ill-suited for prolonged gunfights. Engaging in a slugging match can lead to significant damage, so choose your battles wisely.
• Main Battery Strength: Komissar’s main battery consists of 240mm guns with good HE penetration. However, her AP penetration is similar to that of Moskva.
• Beware of “Bow-In” Position: Being stuck “bow-in” (with your bow facing the enemy) can be detrimental. Komissar’s limited armor means that sustained fire from the front can quickly lead to her demise.
• Tactical Plane Usage: While the planes are not a primary focus, use them situationally. They can spot enemy ships or provide support when your main guns are unavailable.
• AP Overmatch Capability: Komissar’s AP shells can overmatch the bow and stern armor of light cruisers (16mm thickness).
