The H-39 features eight 406 mm guns housed in four dual turrets. Gaijin Entertainment notes these guns have a reload speed of 2 shots per minute when using a trained crew. The ship also carries eighteen 533 mm torpedoes.

While the internal armor is stronger than the Bismarck, the external belt armor is slightly thinner. The developer says the ship has weak anti-air protection and vulnerabilities at the front and rear where shells can hit the magazine. Vehicle specifications may be subject to change before they are added to the game.

Background In November, the Eagle's Shadow update will also introduce DLSS 5 support for GeForce RTX 50 Series or RTX Spark devices. Our earlier story
