A legend of the Soviet Black Sea Fleet, the ship that entered the battle during the very first days of the German invasion - Voroshilov light cruiser!
Voroshilov, Light Cruiser, USSR, IV rank. Event vehicle.
The light cruiser Voroshilov is one of the cruisers of the Project 26 (Kirov class), was laid down in 1935, launched in 1937, and in 1940 joined the Soviet Black Sea Fleet as flagship. Like other cruisers from the project, it was a deep modernization of the Italian cruiser Eugenio di Savoia, with significantly better firepower and hull strength. Voroshilov saw combat literally in the first days of the Nazi invasion of the USSR, assisting the attack on the oil silos of the Constanta, Romania in June 1941. Later that year she shelled the accumulations of German military vehicles and personnel in the Perekop region. During WWII, Voroshilov took an active part in combat throughout the Black Sea, and was several times damaged by shelling and enemy aircraft. For her courage, the cruiser was awarded the Order of the Red Banner. After the war, Voroshilov continued to serve in the Black Sea Fleet of the Soviet Navy, going through several stages of modernization. The cruiser was decommissioned in 1973 and later scrapped for metal.
In our game, the Voroshilov light cruiser will become a reward for participants of the new season of War Thunder Battle Pass. The new ship is in many ways similar to the lead ship of the series - the cruiser Kirov, which is already quite familiar to commanders of War Thunder's bluewater fleet. The main guns of the cruiser are 9 180mm guns in three turrets. In addition to HE and AP shells, commanders will be able to research semi-armour-piercing shells that are very useful for effectively fighting other light cruisers, as well as shells with a remote fuse. The main battery guns are supplemented by 6 100mm universal guns, that won’t leave the cruiser defenseless while the main battery reloads.
The advantages and disadvantages of the Voroshilov are pretty much the same as those of the lead ship: a powerful 180mm main calibre with a good choice of shells, but rather slow reloading, fairly good speed, torpedo launchers and light protection. The main difference in Voroshilov is a more numerous and quicker firing AA battery of small-calibre guns: 13 37mm autocannons, supplemented by 12 heavy machine guns in quadruple and single-barreled mountings. Cruisers in this series are highly vulnerable to aircraft attacks, so such an increase in air defense truly comes in handy.
The new light cruiser Voroshilov is a good addition to the bluewater fleet of the Soviet Navy. For some, it will become a reinforcement for any already researched cruiser setup, and for others - the first large ship and a pass into battle with sea giants.
Voroshilov is one of the prizes of the upcoming season of the Battle Pass in War Thunder; and like other event vehicles, it will become yours by completing simple in-game tasks. Follow our news and wait for an announcement about the new season with the details. See you soon!

Guarantee this is the free reward as it's not even premium
Watch it not be free lol
Hot
😳🥵🥵
Why gaijin can't people just say thank you for a vehicle? Just why?
Fr
Well, people do actually PAY for the BP. And considering it's a paid thing, it's perfectly reasonable to expect the vehicles from it to be premium. They always were thus far. Therefore, people are upset that it is not a premium. In F2P events, a non-premium reward is fine, but in a paid event it would be fair to have a premium reward. Add to this that the stock naval grind at 5.7 vs. Battleships is pretty much worst stock grind in the game.
bruh
I dont know why people are complaining. I see this as an absolute win.
Well you see, due to the lack of naval EC we don't exactly have any mode to use this ship in... so many people see it as a waste of developer resources as sad as it is
Because it's stock. There's no fun involved fighting battleships with no repair, no fpe and HE-shells.
Nice looking model.
Also, people don't understand why this ship isn't a premium. If you want a top tier premium, buy Zheleznyakov. Gaijin won't make it just obsolete yet by introducing a cheaper BP option. That is just not happening yet, until we have premium battleships.
let's hope that is gonna be free to obtain otherwise i will be disappointed
Welp I was hoping for a Pr.1134A (would be more unique yet sooo much more dangerous) but another Pr.26 will have to do yet not a premium Karabast!! hmm just like the Raubtier class Torpedo Boats now three of the class in game (Leopard, Jaguar & Luch) an similar with three Pr.68's in game too.
