![]() ![]() ![]() The AP penetration is far worse than what you would find on Izumo and is outclassed by the other 16-inchers at medium range and beyond. Other than that, she is stuck with only eight guns and a reload that is only a little bit below average. Her only two strengths are the great firing angles and the 2.1 sigma. When it comes to her classic Japanese battleship side, she really doesn’t bring much to the table. She isn’t a good Japanese battleship and neither is she a good brawling ship, making her sit in a particularly uncomfortable spot. The Iwami is suffering from a serious identity crisis. High detectability range on the torpedoes.Rather poor firing angles for the torpedoes for close-range engagement.Poor firing angles on some of the secondaries.Lack of spotter plane to extend her firing range.One quadruple torpedo launcher on each side.100 mm secondaries able to penetrate 30 mm platings.+100% to experience earned in the battle.-20% to the cost of ship’s post-battle service.+4% to maximum dispersion of shells fired by the enemy at your ship.The permanent camouflage of the Iwami provides the classic bonuses for tier IX ships: The ship also gets a Kii-like refit with two quadruple torpedo launchers at the rear as well as many twin 100 mm secondaries. Iwami on the other end is armed with 410 mm guns. ![]() Now on that table, the main battery caliber is 40 cm (400 mm) but it’s how Japan was calling the 460 mm guns.

She gets the general armament layout and hull design of the A-140-J3 with four main battery turrets in AB-XY configuration for the main battery and then three triple 155 mm secondary turrets around the Y turret. Iwami is based on two of the preliminary A-140 designs that lead to the Yamato-class battleships. Is she worth it? Are we getting the first Japanese battleship made for brawling? Here is my opinion on the subject. Alternatively, she will be available in the premium shop with the standard bundle costing 63.49€. The ship will become available starting from the 8th for 19 300 doubloons or 228 000 coal in the armory. Ladies and Gentlemen, today we will talk about Iwami, the new tier IX premium Japanese battleship. ![]()
