New Premium Ships
American Tier V Battleship Oklahoma
A Nevada-class battleship belonging to the first series of the U.S. Navy's Standard-type battleships. Oklahoma had "all-or-nothing" armor protection, and her main battery guns were concentrated at her fore and aft ends.
American Tier VI Destroyer Black Farragut
The black version of post-WWI destroyer Farragut. By treaty, her displacement was restricted to less than 1,500 tons. She was equipped with new 127 mm dual-purpose guns and a modern fire-control system, and she was also armed with quadruple-tube torpedo launchers.
French Tier VI Aircraft Carrier Béarn
The first aircraft carrier of the French Navy, Béarn was converted from an unfinished Normandie-class battleship. She had a unique power plant for her ship type that utilized steam turbines.
British Tier VII Battleship Collingwood
A battleship with main armament consisting of six 419 mm guns housed in three turrets on the ship's bow, similar to the Nelson-class battleships.
British Tier VIII Destroyer Black Lightning
An L-class destroyer and the next step in the development of the J-class ships. In comparison with her predecessors, she had fewer torpedo tubes and new, more powerful 120 mm guns housed in turrets with a design that enabled them to fire at aircraft.
Japanese Tier IX Battleship Iwami
A version of the A-140-J3 "super battleship" project that had a smaller number of main battery guns and more effective dual-purpose artillery and torpedo armament.
American Tier IX Cruiser Rochester
An Oregon City-class heavy cruiser with more advanced AA weaponry and a different arrangement for her AA defenses compared to her direct predecessors—the Baltimore-class ships.
American Tier X Aircraft Carrier Franklin D. Roosevelt
A Midway-class aircraft carrier. The vast scale of the ships of this class allowed them to be equipped with powerful AA defenses, excellent anti-torpedo protection, and reliable flight-deck armor.

Live Server Testing
We’ve recently implemented a change that will allow our SuperTesters, Community Contributors, and Wargaming representatives to test all the new ships that have been added with the latest build prior to their official release. This new program is part of our ongoing effort to ensure that all new ships are released in the best possible state for game balance and meta.
By allowing testing on the Live Servers, we’re able to expand our testing scope and gain valuable feedback from our dedicated SuperTesters and Community Contributors. This will enable us to make necessary changes and adjustments to ensure the ships are functioning in line with the game's balance standards.
Only Press Account holders will have access to test these new ships; however, we want everyone to stay up to date with our latest progress by visiting our social media channels. Thank you for your continued support and feedback, which helps us maintain the quality and balance of the game.
