But she is sluggish with a 1050m turning circle radius - worse than the larger Tier X American battleships - and a rudder shift time of 18.4 seconds. Kearsarge has some of the worst maneuverability of Tier IX American battleships. As a result, she will not hold up in a one on one fight and captains will find themselves in trouble quickly if they are too aggressive. At 84,300 health points she has the largest health pool of the Tier IX American battleships which does help to offset this, but she also has the worst torpedo damage reduction at just 24%. so enemy captains capable of hitting this massive area with little to no difficulty can farm damage at will. With her large flight deck that occupies most of amidships, she takes a lot of damage to this area. Her bow and stern at 32mm thick are in theory capable of bouncing 16-inch shells but it most likely will not feel that way in battle. Kearsarge's armored belt consists of a lower belt with 254mm thickness, a middle section with 330mm thickness and an upper belt at only 38mm thick. While her ungainly appearance may be off-putting to some, she may just surprise those willing to take the helm. She is armed with the traditional heavy guns of a battleship yet also brings a squadron of attack aircraft to the fight.
The Tier IX hybrid battleship Kearsarge appears at a glance to be a frankensteined Montana, North Carolina, Bogue, and Midway.
