AL Rossiya is a Sovetsky Soyuz-based Azur Lane variant: tighter long-range vertical dispersion and much faster turret traverse, traded against a slower rudder and weaker turrets.

AL Sov. Rossiya is a Tier VIII Soviet tank battleship (88,100 HP): top-decile hit points let her hold trades that drain peer BBs out faster than the shells they fire back. The kit is line-holder, not striker. Standout traits: best turret traverse rate in T8 BBs (9) and best AA reach in T8 BBs (5.2 km).
Anchor a flank at 14-17 km where the team can rotate behind you. The HP pool lets you absorb focus that drains peer BBs out, but absorbing focus without trading is just wasted HP; pick salvo targets that exploit the angle others avoid.
The HP pool is a tool for holding the angle while you reload, not a license to sit broadside; every salvo you skip is a salvo your team had to land instead.
88100.0 HP, best of T8 BBs.
5.2 km AA reach, best of T8 BBs.
239.9 m max horizontal dispersion, worst of T8 BBs. Long-range salvos are noticeably wider than peers'.
136800.0 secondary DPM (theoretical), bottom decile of T8 BBs. Less per-minute secondary throughput than peers; brawl trade depends more on the mains.
AL Sov. Rossiya is a Premium ship and not available to unlock in the Tech Tree. Acquisition path: Containers. Container chances are shown as the listed odds of receiving this exact ship, dividing grouped ship-pool odds across the resolved ships and including nested container paths when a crate can drop another crate.

Where AL Sov. Rossiya sits among Tier VIII BBs (31 ships). Notable standouts are shown first; the rest of the cohort-ranked stats are in the expand below. Acquisition variants (Black Friday, Founders Edition) are counted once with their base ship, not as separate peers.
Not standouts for AL Sov. Rossiya -- here's where she sits on every other ranked stat in the cohort. Stats tagged NORM are tied across more than half the cohort, so the value is the cohort default rather than a standout.

Horizontal dispersion ellipse width at max range, from the verified WoWS dispersion model: $\sigma_H = \left(\dfrac{R}{30}\cdot\dfrac{\text{idealRadius}-\text{minRadius}}{\text{idealDistance}} + \text{minRadius}\right)\cdot 30$ $= \left(\dfrac{17390}{30}\cdot\dfrac{13-1.1}{1000} + 1.1\right)\cdot 30 = 239.9\,\text{m}$How wide your shells scatter at 10 km, from the same dispersion model as the max-range figure above. Picking a fixed range makes this number directly comparable from ship to ship: max-range dispersion makes a longer-range gun look worse even when it's tighter at any common range. The interactive Dispersion tab on the Charts card plots the full curve from 0 to max range.Vertical dispersion ellipse height at max range: $\sigma_V = \sigma_H \cdot \text{radiusOnMax}$ $= 239.9 \cdot 0.63 = 151.2\,\text{m}$How tall the same scatter ellipse is at 10 km. Comparable from ship to ship for the same reason as the width value above.50%-hit horizontal radius: $\sigma_{H,50} = \sigma_H \cdot \text{GetHalfHitsRatio}(\sigma)$ $= 239.9 \cdot 0.356\;(\sigma = 1.7) = 85.5\,\text{m}$50%-hit vertical radius: $\sigma_{V,50} = \sigma_V \cdot \text{GetHalfHitsRatio}(\sigma)$ $= 151.2 \cdot 0.356\;(\sigma = 1.7) = 53.9\,\text{m}$Canonical community AP formula (jcw780/wows_shell), evaluated at muzzle velocity: $P = 10^{-7}\cdot K \cdot m^{0.69} \cdot d^{-1.07} \cdot v_0^{1.38}$ $= 10^{-7}\cdot 2300 \cdot 1108^{0.69} \cdot 0.406^{-1.07} \cdot 830^{1.38} = 812.2\,\text{mm}$. Matches the in-game spec card.Same formula at the ship's max firing range (21.7 km), where the shell has slowed to 587.5 m/s: $P = 10^{-7}\cdot 2300 \cdot 1108^{0.69} \cdot 0.406^{-1.07} \cdot 587.5^{1.38} = 504.2\,\text{mm}$.68 mm ≈ 406 mm caliber / 6 (standard HE penetration ratio).floor(406 mm caliber / 14.3) = 28 mm (AP auto-penetrates plating this thick or less).AP shell over-penetration splash radius; scales with shell mass. Wickes 102mm = 3, standard 152mm CL ~ 20, Iowa 406mm ~ 270, Yamato 460mm = 400, Incomparable 650mm = 550 (max). Larger value = bigger splash damage area when AP over-pens.All 9 barrels bear on the broadside.180 degrees / 9 deg/s traverse speed = 20 s.5,800 HE damage x 9 broadside guns = 52,200.13,250 AP damage x 9 broadside guns = 119,250.52,200 HE full-salvo alpha x 60 / 33 s base reload = 94,909.119,250 AP full-salvo alpha x 60 / 33 s base reload = 216,818.52,200 HE full-salvo alpha x 60 / 29.7 s installed reload (Main Battery Mod. 3 = -10%) = 105,455.119,250 AP full-salvo alpha x 60 / 29.7 s installed reload (Main Battery Mod. 3 = -10%) = 240,909.9 broadside guns x 60 / 33 s base reload = 16.4.9 broadside guns x 60 / 29.7 s installed Artillery reload = 18.2.16.4 shells/min x 40% fire chance = 6.55.18.2 shells/min x 40% fire chance = 7.27.Sum across every AA aura on this ship of (aura.continuous_damage x 3.5 x aura.hit_probability). Here: (61×3.5×0.75) + (37×3.5×0.75) + (20×3.5×0.7) + (26×3.5×0.75) = 374. Covers AA-only mounts plus dual-purpose secondaries (Bismarck 105mm, USN 5"/38 cruiser secondaries) and dual-purpose main batteries (Sumner-class 5"/38, Akizuki-line 100mm). Formula validated against in-game captures on California, Sumner, Manfred von Richthofen, Dante Alighieri (exact) and within +/-17% on the remaining verified ships.Longest-reaching aura across AA-only + dual-purpose auras.SUM over AA auras of (aura DPS x aura range km). A plane crossing the AA bubble is exposed to each aura for a time proportional to that aura's range, so long-reach DPS is worth more than the same DPS in a short bubble. Units: DPS*km; used to rank overall AA threat across the cohort.Max dispersion = range (km) × 57 + 30. Each dispersion type sets its own slope; this is not a percentage applied to a standard baseline.5 km × 57 + 30 = 315 m.Sum across all secondary families of (per-side barrels × 60 / reload_s × alpha), where per-side barrels = mounts × barrels-per-mount / 2 (the guns that bear on one broadside target). Per-family: 6×2 130 mm (6/side) × 60/5 × 1900 = 136,800. Assumes every shell hits (real hit rate is lower; the Brawl matchup tool on the Compare page folds in dispersion + target armor).Maximum HE damage per shell across secondary HE families. Best on this ship: 1900 from the 130 mm family.Maximum per-shell fire chance across secondary HE families (before target fire resistance is applied). Best on this ship: 8% from the 130 mm family.Maximum HE armor penetration across secondary HE families (caliber × 1/6 for most nations; 1/4 for German/UK BBs). Shells whose pen falls under a plate's armor thickness shatter for 0 hull damage though fire chance still applies. Best on this ship: 22 mm from the 130 mm family.Every custom exterior AL Sov. Rossiya can equip, from in-game data.
