Built with the guidance of the Supreme Leader, the type C Mount paektu class is a 100% new design and totally not an Amagi class rip off.
It is also the most powerful surface warship afloat and its 420 mm guns are definitely bigger than the IJN 18 inch guns while its 40mm armour belt is thicker than the yamato and its 16 inch belt because umm.. the supreme leader said so and I don't want to be re-educated.
Which kind of makes this a commie Amagi...
So Commiemagi?

1943 parts... coincidence? I think not!
A Battlecruiser With 5x 420mm Cannon? Seems Legit Even Though It Breaks Naval Treaty Of Guns Can't Be Bigger Than 405mm, Its Ok Though Since My Preußen Class Battleship (Exist As Drawing) Is The Same, It Even Worse Since Mine Use 12x 450mm Main Gun With Maximum Gun Shot In A Salvo Is 8 Gun To Prevent Breaking Or Damage By The Powerful Blast
Looks great. One problem i don't have the mod and can't download it
That is true. As mentioned though, the North Point would likely die horribly if the action was in good visibility, in open seas, and where the North Point couldn’t simply run away. @BlazeInfinity
@Pilotmario as I said, it all depends on one lucky shot, and only Radar and Size calibre influence the percentage of it. His Calibre is higher and has basic radar at least. So his chances of that lucky shot is higher than North Point's
@BlazeInfinity It may have radar if that ball ahead of the main rangefinder is a radar unit, but it's likely a basic search-type or fire control radar if that's the case.
@Pilotmario
Northpoint won't survive because this isn't Amagi, it may even have radar
@BlazeInfinity
Well that was kind of the point of battlecruisers in the first place. Namely, as cruiser stompers.
The North Point does have radar that would allow it to simply lay smoke or dive into the nearest rain squall or patch of bad weather, flip on the radar aim/wallhacks, and deliver a hail of accurate 8” armor-piercing shells while the battlecruiser sits there wondering where the stream of 8” shells are coming from.
It also has a slight speed advantage, but that would mostly be useful to run away from a very lopsided fight. Which it may not be able to do, especially if it is a screening force as cruisers tend to be.
But if the North Point can’t find a suitable blob of cover or weather to obscure visibility but allow the use of superior radar-directed fire control to deliver the death of a thousand cuts, then the death of the North Point by 16” naval gun is all but assured.
@Pilotmario
Amagi class had the speed and the maneuver capacity of a cruiser with battleship class guns. If North point ever happened to meet this ship in a WW2 scenario, I am pretty sure this ship would have won because North point lacks in every aspect compared it it.
But when it comes to Real life, it all depends on one lucky shot.
Finally starting to make some ships with sense.
I’m kinda curious as to how well it would fare against my old North Point.
I’d give it to this, since while neither ship has armor that can realistically hope to stop the other’s shells, this has bigger guns.
On second thought the Salem-class missile cruiser conversions would likely blow it out of the water on the basis of a large number of anti-shipping missiles. @Feanor
@GeneralOliverVonBismarck Definitely. Like the North Koreans somehow getting their hands on a battlecruiser sort of unrealism.
I would like to purchase one for my RP faction.
