I only just noticed this... even SDE admits IJN have paper ships lol

They also have paper armor! :)

During WW2, steel was scarce in the empire of Japan.

b65 is the famous origami art work in NF :)

IJN - The nation mocked even by the admins.

Strangely enough they're not mocking KM enough... oh wait KM has the best BBs till BB5

Although every nation has a plus and minus to them IMO IJN is a very well rounded nation compared to others. I think most ppl would agree IJN BB5>KM BB5. Its all how you play...do you use AA like you should on your paper ship? It is most important on IJN and KM as they both have very strong AA. If they can't see you they can't sink you. Just a thought.

KM Best bb till bb5?

Yamato with godlike aa, godlike spread, bb5 damage, consistent range, decent speed, anti armour while KM can't. Also yamato is smaller than H39 in term of hitbox..
Stalingrad that outdamage h39, better range than H39, can nuke AW ship unlike KM, have h4x hitbox and have submergence to that.

BB2, the QE with Mark N gun have BB3 range and kick some ass. Not to mention it's submergence and hitbox that gives it an edge.

The only thing you are right about KM best BB are our KM BB3 that is overpowered.

Ask Filek about IJN ships, armour, aa, firepower etc , he'll tell u that IJN is best in everything but won't show u, trolololololo

Maybe they mean that the B65 only existed on paper, as a sketch, but has never been built ...

I post a something about armor in KM forum, that should be interesting for your knowledge.
