Background

About the ship

A heavy cruiser armed with nine 203 mm guns. The ship was based on a project developed in Great Britain at the beginning of World War II. She had significant advantages over the County-class heavy cruisers, including stronger armor and more powerful main battery guns arranged in triple-gun turrets. However, the project went nowhere—lighter ships were prioritized amid the war.
