USS Constellation (CC-2) was the second of 6 Lexington-Class Battlecruisers, laid down 18th August 1920. She and 3 of her sisters USS Ranger (CC-4), USS Constitution (CC-5) and USS United States (CC-6) were scrapped in 1923. USS Lexington (CV-2) and USS Saratoga (CV-3) would be converted into Aircraft Carriers, Lexington would be sunk at the battle of the coral Sea in 1942, Saratoga would survive the war being sunk as a target ship in 1947 during operation crossroads. The Lexington-Class were going to be the first battlecruisers ever built by the United States Navy. They would be modeled off the Colorado-Class Battleships and be armed with the same 16" guns from the cancelled 1920 South Dakota Class. With a purposed top speed of 33 knots, they would of been a match for the Kongo-Class they were designed to oppose along with the then king of the battlecruisers HMS Hood. However, being a signature on the Washington Naval Treaty in 1922, the Lexington-Class were cancelled, though they were doomed before that as US Naval Doctrine moved towards the all or nothing Battleships after reviewing the battles of Jutland and Dogger Bank. It could be argued that the US finally did join the battlecruiser craze alittle later with the two Alaska-class Battlecruisers/Large Cruisers.
@@evilhobo0923 I would still call them Large Cruisers and not battle Cruisers. Their hull was an enlarged Baltimore class cruiser hull, where Battlecruisers used battleship hulls. The 12 inch guns were not battleship caliber in the 1940's, where Battlecruisers had battleship caliber armament. The Alaska's had no real torpedo defenses where Battlecruisers would have extensive torpedo defense systems just like battleships.
U.S.S. Constellation (CC-2) was the second ship of the planned 6 Lexington-class battlecruisers for the United States Navy. As in response to the Imperial Japanese Navy’ construction of the Kongō-class battlecruisers. The construction of these ships was authorized under the 1917-1919 building programs, were the only ships of their type ever ordered by the U.S. Navy. Intended as fast combat scouts for the battle fleet, these large ships had a prolonged development history. Their original 1916 design was to displace 34,300 tons with a main battery of ten 14-inch guns, rather light armor, seven smokestacks with many of the boilers above the armored deck, and a speed of 35 knots. By 1919, the plans had been recast on the basis of World War I experience to produce larger ships armed with 16-inch guns, much better protection, two smokestacks with all boilers below the armored deck, and a somewhat lower speed. Construction of the Lexington class ships was held up by other priorities during the First World War, and none of them were laid down until mid-1920. The following year's naval limitations conference in Washington, D.C., had these expensive battle cruisers, and their Japanese and British contemporaries, among its main targets. Following adoption of the Washington Treaty, their construction was stopped in February 1922. The treaty allowed the conversion of two of the battle cruiser hulls to the aircraft carriers Lexington (CV-2) and Saratoga (CV-3). The other four were formally cancelled in August 1923 and scrapped on their building ways. The Lexington class consisted of six ships, under construction at four locations: Lexington (CC-1). Keel laid at Quincy, Massachusetts, January 1921. Became the aircraft carrier CV-2. Constellation (CC-2). Keel laid at Newport News, Virginia, August 1920. Cancelled and scrapped. Saratoga (CC-3). Keel laid at Camden, New Jersey, September 1920. Became the aircraft carrier CV-3. Ranger (CC-4). Keel laid at Newport News, Virginia, June 1921. Cancelled and scrapped. Constitution (CC-5). Keel laid at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, September 1920. Cancelled and scrapped. United States (CC-6). Keel laid at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, September 1920. Cancelled and scrapped. Original (1916) Battle Cruiser Numbers 1 - 4 design characteristics: Displacement: 34,300 tons Dimensions: 874' (length overall); 90'11" (maximum beam) Powerplant: 180,000 horsepower steam turbines with electric drive, producing a 35 knot maximum speed Armament (Main Battery): Ten 14"/50 guns in two twin (turret #s 1 & 4) and two triple (turret #s 2 & 3) turrets Armament (Secondary Battery): Eighteen 5"/51 guns in single mountings (nine guns on each side of the ship) Definitive (1919) Lexington class (Battle Cruiser Numbers 1 - 6) design characteristics: Displacement: 43,500 tons Dimensions: 874' (length overall); 105'5" (maximum beam) Powerplant: 180,000 horsepower steam turbines with electric drive, producing a 33.25 knot maximum speed Armament (Main Battery): Eight 16"/50 guns in four twin turrets Armament (Secondary Battery): Sixteen 6"/53 guns in single mountings (eight guns on each side of the ship)
I've had some of my best games in the Constellation. I freaking love it. 7 kills in 2 games. 150,000+ damage. I adore this ship. Especially the agility and turn radius and I have my guns reloading in 24sec
The Constellation also has a torp belt on the inside of the side plate at the water line. The ship looks fun, I’m thinking about possibly picking it . Spartan just wanted to say you do an excellent job with your “Meet the ???” Videos. Great voice
I bought this ship. I really like the guns and radar but still struggling how to play it. Learning it the hard way and watching this review over and over again to see what you do with it
I'm not even joking, I just got this ship in one of the Christmas crates that wargaming is giving out for free for this winters update, so I'm watching your and others guides on how to play this ship.
@@SpartanElite43 yeah I've played it only a couple time but definitely am getting the hang of it, I also had gotten asashio from another crate so if I can get any tips on that, would be great
The reason the torpedo protection is bad is balance, of course, but also historically the Lexington class had pretty below average torp protection for a capital ship. This o e has had bulges added, but it probably wasn't totally rebuilt like the Pearl Harbor ships got (I'm thinking Cali)
I'm really liking the Constellation. Not the biggest guns but definitely some of the most accurate. BB v BB it is decent. Played right it can handle itself well. But can be chunked easily. But BB v CL/CA is another story. I have had more Dev strikes in the last week using Constellation against cruisers than I've had in the previous 2 months. Its almost See cruiser, shoot cruiser, no more cruiser. LOL. And the number of DD's surprised by the radar is laughable. I have to say Constellation has made it near the top of my list for USA BB's . Iowa, NJ, Missouri, and Constellation are my picks. I know, Kansas should be there but Kansas and I just do not seem to mesh well. I can do OK in the kansas but just cannot get it to perform as well as others (like spartan). I think mine is a lemon. LOL
Great review, as always. I love the USS Georgia and play it more than any other USN BB. Currently grinding to the USS Kansas and your videos give me insight and inspiration. Thanks again Captain
Picked this up while it’s got the coupon, so you know I had to come watch Spartans video on it! I personally maxed out it’s reloaded and got it down to a 19.5 second reload time. Part of me does want to do a accuracy build but i’ve already sunk way too much into the reload lol.
I know she isn’t the most popular ship, but she is so good-looking, IMO. Like a sleeker Tennessee-class. This is what the Alaska dreams of being, haha. Cheers, man; Just started playing a few weeks ago (I’m a convert from PC… I like this game SO much more) and your videos have been tremendously helpful. I only wish the game was more popular, you’re a great UA-camr but I fear your potential is capped in this community. Ever thought about War Thunder naval? I like a lot more than PC WoWs and the WT community is rather massive… Cheers! P.S. As a Massachusetts native, you should do a Massachuetts BB video (if you haven’t already, going to go search now!)
Now I wasn't expecting much out of this ship before I got it and I just thought it would be a below average American BB but I'm a American BB stan so I had to get it, but I have to say, I'm in love with it, 2nd Fav American VII BB right behind Kansas
I’m in the same exact boat as you (literally) I never thought a T7 ship with Colorado guns would also be ship I consider to have the best guns at the tier. I took out a full health Alabama recently in one shot. 4 citadels and 4 pens. He looked angled when I fired but all 8 of my rounds formed a small octagon and I knew it was gonna hurt. Easily the most accurate and most damaging shot I’ve ever fired to date.
Just started back playing been away got the french Flandre with that 70% voutcher and working/loving it.. got my ehe on this next spartan tyvm for the vid... stuck with drackmas between the belfast 43 or the singfield.. any advice? that schill is T 7 so B43 I have the others.
New Jersey is tied with Iowa for second place for AA DPS laying at 648. Georgia has 649. This has 548. Missouri actually has worse than Iowa and New Jersey at 646. Jean Bart and La Foudre sitting at 560. There's some AA for you :)
THIS, is SpaaartAAAA(n)!!!! Sorry had to do that. Great info thanks, I'm now interested in this as it seems battlecruiserish and I like those faster lighter big boats. Like the French lines, for speed. Like to play a mobile firepower game, keep moving turning, working the throttle - have taken to putting prop mod on BBs where possible. Looking at this I was first thinking to go for a reload/speed build but then got to thinking maybe, an AP punch/Max HP build. Might have to use Willis lee for that, with Sims and the guy who boosts BB AP pen - I do love to tinker with commander builds
Hello Spartan Great review as always 👍 Colorado at maximum speed ... ahahaha I think the constellation needs to go to the ship's west coast customs for help against torpedo protection 😝😝😝😝
Well I just downloaded this game a few days ago, I have played the PC version long ago, and well I am enjoying it so far (war gaming bring back the smolensk) anyway I been enjoying the battleships / destroyers and cruisers.
@@forgottencreed Yes, I was going by what Spartan said early in video when he talked about those being 6km vs 5km in other American BB’s. I don’t think he normally equips AA mod as he did on this ship, so it accounts for the difference.
Your review was top as usual, but I don't like the Constellation. For flanking maneuvers I would strongly recommend the fast French BB. I really do love the Richelieu and Alsace for what they can come up with.
The torpedo protection is low for balance but it is still roo good in my opinion it is also perplexing why a design from 1919 gets Iowa secondaries and post war AA while ships like Gascogne and Vhampagne get tier 5 AA, it would also be nice if Gascogne got Jean Bart guns since its a paper ship (at the current time Gascogne has worse accuracy than Bismarck and Richelieu because nobody plays it and it didnt get any accuracy buffs)
Yeah, I'm not sure why a 1919 design has the same superstructure(not exactly) as an Iowa class BB. There was no refit. This ship wasn't actually built, and all Lexington class BC besides 2 were canceled, and those 2 were converted into Carrier's. This is a prime example of Wargaming making shit up on the fly.
@@dgeneratio1 so much accuracy already on this one, tho - guessing it's already best of the T7 US BBs, and that's before slot 4 and commander perks. With the weaker armor, best to overwhelm the target as fast as possible. That's why I use von Essen insp too.
@@SpartanElite43 I understand well if you would like try a division I'll try to be on at the time.... Maybe a Montana division would work when I obtain the ship which shouldn't take to much longer.
I should of bought this over Florida. I like the looks of Florida better but this is better the Florida. I'll take Georgia over this.but I would deff like to buy constellation
Should've watched your vid before I decided to spend 30£ on it... this ship is Flippin trash, every time I get hit it's a citadel hit, today I got hit once and end up with 66HP didn't even know that's what's even possible
It's squishy but once you learn to angle well its nasty. I actually love constellation and recently I've been running the AL Colorado reload build on it
Jean Bart has 100 in AA lol. You should try Queen Elizabeth as an inspiration. She makes better dispersion, quicker reload, and more damage. Also which would you use Cunningham over New Jersey?
@@SpartanElite43 7/10 on the aim not bad yeah but you've been "not bad" since ever and compared to pgrapidz yeah and I know you UA-camrs pick the best matches for your videos but still should be better by this point because I've seen your videos for a long time
@@chocolatecaliente9 see that's the thing.. I dont compare myself to others. I know where I stand in terms of my performance. I'm a solid Uni and I'm ok with that. I dont need to be top 1% player. We have plenty of folks that are top 1% who talk about how amazing they are. I just enjoy playing the game and sharing my experience with everyone. I focus on being entertaining and that works for me. Plus my overall accuracy is a solid 42%.. Most of the top players are at 45% from what I've seen so it isn't as big a difference as you'd think. My biggest downfall isn't my accuracy it is my over aggressive style of gameplay which often finds me in bad positions and gets me sunk. However this is also probably the main reason folks watch my content... Anyone can sit back and snipe for 15 minutes or island hop.. Not everyone can play the game at the pace I do and come out on the winning side as often as I do. Despite what many think even after doing this as long as I have I still only have like 11k games played. Anyway hope this helps clear some stuff up. Also hope you enjoy watching my content for what it is. Appreciate you coming around for such a long time.

Hello Spartan
Great review as always 👍
Colorado at maximum speed ... ahahaha
I think the constellation needs to go to the ship's west coast customs for help against torpedo protection 😝😝😝😝
Nice vid spartan. I was wondering if this ship was going to flop. I would pick it up for gxp.
Well I just downloaded this game a few days ago, I have played the PC version long ago, and well I am enjoying it so far (war gaming bring back the smolensk) anyway I been enjoying the battleships / destroyers and cruisers.
Welcome to Legends Hope you enjoy for a Long time.
Also welcome to the channel!
I think you should run Criss Cross and Main Battery mod 2. Helps with better speed and 25 sec turret traverse.
i brought the constellion on last wed
Noice enjoy!
Spartan - Doesn’t the AA on this reach out to 6 km because you equipped that mod in slot 1? That would account for the extra 20% range.
Only the 127mm mk32s reach out to 6km with the mod I believe
@@forgottencreed Yes, I was going by what Spartan said early in video when he talked about those being 6km vs 5km in other American BB’s. I don’t think he normally equips AA mod as he did on this ship, so it accounts for the difference.
Because in my opinion you're really good at this game.
Ohh boy can't wait to put new jersey commander on this ship😈
Which radar is better Missouri or constellation
Honestly they are either same or constellation is .9km better range
looks like a Vermont with Colorado guns💀💀
BRO HAD ALL MAX, im just whit my tier 1 ship 💀😭
Pretty cool ship, it was also cool seeing CVN 78 in Oslo today. Y’all are welcome here anytime lol
Noice!
Your review was top as usual, but I don't like the Constellation. For flanking maneuvers I would strongly recommend the fast French BB. I really do love the Richelieu and Alsace for what they can come up with.
It is sad Wargaming went through all this and gave her the wrong guns. They were supposed to have the 16 inch 50 caliber MK2 guns.
Do you have the Minnesota?
Yes and I've got a couple videos in it if you search my channel for it
The torpedo protection is low for balance but it is still roo good in my opinion it is also perplexing why a design from 1919 gets Iowa secondaries and post war AA while ships like Gascogne and Vhampagne get tier 5 AA, it would also be nice if Gascogne got Jean Bart guns since its a paper ship (at the current time Gascogne has worse accuracy than Bismarck and Richelieu because nobody plays it and it didnt get any accuracy buffs)
Yeah, I'm not sure why a 1919 design has the same superstructure(not exactly) as an Iowa class BB. There was no refit. This ship wasn't actually built, and all Lexington class BC besides 2 were canceled, and those 2 were converted into Carrier's. This is a prime example of Wargaming making shit up on the fly.
Do you not have AZ New Jearsey?
I do have it
If this ship performs well enough, there won't be a reason to grind the Missouri now
I suppose you could say we are seeing stars?
Is it just me or do the guns look really small compared to the rest of the ship
Probably just used to seeing triple or quad turrets so dual gun turrets look strange
I know ppl hate this ship but I adore it. Just wish I had the real money to buy it.
I dont hate it I enjoy it
17,500 doubloons everyone! Who sold an organ to fund this ship? 😂😂
Haha had to give up my birthrights
Curious - why not AL New Jersey? Nothing at all wrong with Sims, of course, but I bet you have reasons!
He prefers the extra Dispersion that Sims provides rather than Damage Potential.
@@dgeneratio1 so much accuracy already on this one, tho - guessing it's already best of the T7 US BBs, and that's before slot 4 and commander perks. With the weaker armor, best to overwhelm the target as fast as possible. That's why I use von Essen insp too.
Since I have less guns I prefer raw accuracy plus Sims gives a HP boost
Spartan are you okay with joining a division and trying a few battles together the next time I'm on?
Sorry I can't make any promises like that. I do appreciate that you enjoy what I do but I just can't div with everyone.
@@SpartanElite43 I understand well if you would like try a division I'll try to be on at the time.... Maybe a Montana division would work when I obtain the ship which shouldn't take to much longer.
But I'll invite you to a division or you invite me ether way works but I'm only gonna invite/join if you're okay with it at the time.
I just won this in a crate
I should of bought this over Florida. I like the looks of Florida better but this is better the Florida. I'll take Georgia over this.but I would deff like to buy constellation
Georgia has18 inch guns spartan!

Yeah, I'm really liking the Connie! It's definitely not the most durable thing at Tier VII, but it's a lot of fun.
YOU DID WHAT I ASKED!!!!
i used my 70% off coupon for this ship :>
Nice hope you enjoy it as much as I do
@SpartanElite43 since it was one of the very few I had missing and I usually come across dds more than Cruisers... it's been very good

Jean Bart has 100 in AA lol. You should try Queen Elizabeth as an inspiration. She makes better dispersion, quicker reload, and more damage. Also which would you use Cunningham over New Jersey?
First
Noice
Georgia is better than this ship. Still a fun addition tho
It’s rubbish not worth the money
Outstanding

After all this time the aim still hasn't improved
Dont think my aim was that bad in this fight so not sure what you're on about
@@SpartanElite43 7/10 on the aim not bad yeah but you've been "not bad" since ever and compared to pgrapidz yeah and I know you UA-camrs pick the best matches for your videos but still should be better by this point because I've seen your videos for a long time
@@chocolatecaliente9 see that's the thing.. I dont compare myself to others.
I know where I stand in terms of my performance.
I'm a solid Uni and I'm ok with that.
I dont need to be top 1% player.
We have plenty of folks that are top 1% who talk about how amazing they are.
I just enjoy playing the game and sharing my experience with everyone.
I focus on being entertaining and that works for me.
Plus my overall accuracy is a solid 42%..
Most of the top players are at 45% from what I've seen so it isn't as big a difference as you'd think.
My biggest downfall isn't my accuracy it is my over aggressive style of gameplay which often finds me in bad positions and gets me sunk.
However this is also probably the main reason folks watch my content...
Anyone can sit back and snipe for 15 minutes or island hop..
Not everyone can play the game at the pace I do and come out on the winning side as often as I do.
Despite what many think even after doing this as long as I have I still only have like 11k games played.
Anyway hope this helps clear some stuff up.
Also hope you enjoy watching my content for what it is.
Appreciate you coming around for such a long time.
