[2019] ST, test ships changes

British cruiser Hawkins, tier V:

Ballistics were changed. Now the shell will need less time to travel the same distance: at a range of 7 km instead of 3.94 seconds, it will take 3.80 seconds. At a range of 13,86 km instead of 10.08 seconds, it will take 9,19 seconds. Average armor penetration will remain almost unchanged.

This ballistics adjustment will increase Hawkins' shooting efficiency at all distances.

British cruiser Drake, tier IX:

Surface detectability increased from 12.24 to 13.2 km;


Detectability after firing main guns in smoke increased from 7.6 to 8.33 km;


Air detectability increased from 8.11 to 8.74 km.

Detectability changes will balance Drake's battle efficiency.

European destroyer Klas Horn, tier IV:

Turrets firing angles are changed to prevent crossing over with ship's superstructures.

European destroyer Öland, tier VIII:

Updated ship's AA guns and continuous AA damage:

Continuous damage of the short-range AA guns increased from 46 to 49;


Continuous damage of the mid-range AA guns lowered from 161 to 95;


Continuous damage of the long-range AA guns increased from 63 to 70.

European destroyer Östergötland, tier IX:

Replaced 1x3 and 1x5 torpedo launchers with 2x4.

We adjusted parameters, models and armament of European destroyers based on the internal testing.
