The Carnot is based on two preliminary designs for the Dunkerque-class battleships of the French Marine Nationale. In 1926, in an effort to counter the Italian Trento-class heavy cruisers, the Chief of the Naval General Staff, Admiral Henri Salaun requested a new series of capital ships. The initial design was calling for a 17 500 tons battlecruiser armed with a main battery consisting of two quadruple turrets with 305 mm guns and with both turrets at the front. With the potential future threat of the German Deutschland-class Panzerschiffe, the 17 500 tons design was abandoned in favor of a much larger one. The new “Croiseur de Bataille de 37 000 tonnes” was a massive battlecruiser armed with twelve 305 mm guns in three quadruple turrets for the A design and six 406 mm guns in three twin turrets for the B1 design. In essence, these designs were pretty much an enlarged version of the Suffren-class. However, there was a problem. No shipyard in France was able to build such massive ships and so the idea was abandoned. Despite this catastrophe, a follow-on design, much smaller, was then proposed called “Croiseur protégé de 23 690 tonnes”. This design was armed with ten 305 mm guns in two triple and one quadruple turret. However, the level of protection it would offer wasn’t enough against the 283 mm guns of the Deutschland-class which were considered as the main threat at the time. With some pressure from the French Parliament, a new set of requirements was issued, calling for a ship with an armor protection able to resist 283 mm guns as well as a main battery of eight 330 mm guns. This would lead to the construction of the Dunkerque-class as we know it today. In World of Warships, Carnot is taking the armament of the later “Croiseur protégé de 23 690 tonnes” with a main battery of ten 305 mm and a secondary battery of eight 139 mm guns as well as sixteen 100 mm guns. When it comes to the hull, she is actually using the “Croiseur de Bataille de 37 000 tonnes” and most likely the A2 variant considering the position of the funnels. Fun fact: The name Carnot can be found on the pre-dreadnought battleship of the French Navy, with the name being named after Lazare Carnot, a French mathematician, physicist, and politician who led the Committee of Public Safety during the French Revolution and Marie François Sadi Carnot, a French statesman who served as the President of France from 1887 until his assassination in 1894.
Hi Spartan! About French speaking, a simple tip I have learn when I stay in Paris a few months, you never pronounce the last letter, for example, you said the Carno, the last letter, in this case the T is mute. It’s not much but it’s helping! Thanks for your nice videos!
At this point they should just add a setting in where you can opt to not matchmake into carrier lobbies. But they won’t do that because then every player and their mothers will use that setting and carrier players would have long queue times.
I play on my iPad 12.9 pro 5 Gen m-1 chip , and it’s funny as hell I cannot play or even do anything with the six carriers that I have 🤔but I still get to play against them lol , also I have no ability to make any of my commanders to legendary yet I have like 15 or so that are all 2 3 times legendary lol still can’t use any legendary skill perks 🤔that’s a wtf war gaming I’m like god damed handicapped in matches …I sure hope they fix these issues plus a few more , it can be like playing hockey with a Broken Leg 🦵🤬
@Lejend Dairy you could always just pay a little more attention to the yellow/red plane symbol circling your screen....as long as you 1) pay attention to what type of plane and 2) general direction they're flying you can dodge every torp and 99% of bomb drops. Not as easy in BBs but the rest? Kinda game breaking its so easy.
Just got the Carnot today, haven’t played it yet. I’m disappointed in the Turret Traverse and Reload, I mean WG has other ships in the super cruiser line out and this is the slowest in terms of reload. I could deal with the Traverse, but need reload around 19-16 to compete with DPM.
Didn’t buy the campaign for the Carnot but I still got it, I played it like a bb but I don’t really enjoy all too much so I might just sell it for the 19 mil
I love ur videos my friend exspeicaily the rants and raves like from the live stream from yesterday. I know I’m not a good player on the Wows ledgers but I try to backup my team as much as I can. I just been on the game for maybe 1 year now and really like it. I play on mobile on my iPad. Tysvm my friend for the videos keep them coming out the way u do them. Lots of love from Canada 🇨🇦
My first game with the Carnot was the same as yours. literally. you and I were in the same game (on stream) first time out with this ship. You had a much better game than I did. Every shot I took was a citadel. No amount of angling helped and I found out quickly that this is one of those ships that need to play sneaky, it just cannot take hits well. As it sits now, I am not impressed with this ship. Reload and traverse is MUCH too long. Armor is iffy. And I think you should have a choice between Radar and Engine boost, instead of planes. Alaska, Baltimore, Buffalo, Des Moines (I know US not French but still...) are all far superior for the role.
@@SpartanElite43 yes I think you're right. It's to indicate it's a piece developped by Marine Nationale and the year of conception. We like those thing, like the french assault rifle FAMAS, it stands for "Fusil d'Assaut de la Manufacture d'Armes de Saint-Etienne" (Assault Rifle from Saint-Etienne Weapons Factory, in english)
@Spartan Elite43 lol I was frantically looking for your carnot video like a week ago maybe? I knew I wouldn't finish the campaign in time and ended up paying only like 6k daboons for the ship but wanted to see her first. You have the closest playstyle to me on the whole TH-cam lol. Glad to see I made a good choice 🙌🤣 keep rocking on man!
I quite like the Carnot, I think she should have torpedoes but then again I think everything is better with torpedoes. Very nice guns though and at least they don't get blown off as often as Frog BB guns do.
I've faced this ship in the hms Queen Elizabeth and punched its teeth in with the Queens 15in guns. But it did punch me back since the Queen Elizabeth has less health and only a tier 5.
@greggblack8205 I was in an A.I and I know I saw this ship with this name. I aimed the 15in guns on the Queen Elizabeth straight at the bow and punched it hard. Like what Spartan said,anything with 15inch guns and go straight through the bow. I got hit really hard back since I have less health than it. I really face this ship. I think I got sunk from it. I was angry because at the time,I didn't know it was a tier 8. But I DID hit hard though.
@@dr_candiru7817 it’s just one of the games mechanics that’s hard coded in, the same applies for SAP as well (but not HE). As an example here, Spartan gets the flags for 1 pen and 3 OP, but the damage done is only 1,549 (amusingly, this is already reduced because of damage saturation). Had there been no damage saturation (and excluding commander skills etc) 4 OP shells would do about 3600 damage. (4x(max ap X .10)). Where as if that one shell had been a full pen and the other three OP (again, barring any damage saturation, commander skills etc) that would have been about 6,000 damage, or (1 x (max ap x .3)) + (3 x (max ap x .1)) I suppose it’s just balans 🫠
Got this ship almost 3 weeks ago cuz I didn't have time to play the game cuz I was busy so I was like ah f it so I brought it out and been sitting in the docks since than

The ship looks pretty good! also they don’t make the AA 6.3km because then the carrier mains would cry

The carrier mains, aka the fun police, personally I just call them cun75😉

Lol
a secondary cruiser would be interesting

I just got the ship today I hit a pomern for 22k in one salvo so, I'm already sold ro the ship but you are right that 25mm bow really sucks.
Great review as always.
By the way "Mle" stands for "Marine Nationale" (National Navy)
Noice so they likely had these guns for other artillery purposes too outside of the navy if they had to mark it as a navy gun

Love this content man your amazing
I appreciate that!
How can you fight in invisible ships
I just got this ship out of a Santa 5 crate during wowsl 5th birthday...
GG’s, Spartan. I was your teammate in the Akizuki.
Noice! Gg
Put on my Roux build and I get this baby up to 48.6kn with the boosts and doesn’t drop below 35kn in a full turn.
I'll have my carnot in 3 days almost finished the battle pass I'm excited.
I carnot believe I finally got a ship before you did! 🤣🙌
🎉 nice

That's impossible as it's a tier 8

The reason the AA doesn't fire as far as the secondary is gravity
Please try and explain gravity to flat earthers.
FYI AP from 280+ cannot do full pen damage. You may see the full pen icon, but 280+ will only ever do 10% max AP damage.
Hmm interesting.
How come?

Did where you get so much ships in high levels in such short time?
The baguette 🥖 swings back
Oh the last consonant it’s mute…to be precise
Love your vids Spart!
Glad to hear it
I played this ship the other day and set 16 fires on the other team 😅
Dude I can not get this at all lol but good game man hope I can figure it out soon the reload is just horrible lol
Nice game have a great night 👻🙋
Got this ship almost 3 weeks ago cuz I didn't have time to play the game cuz I was busy so I was like ah f it so I brought it out and been sitting in the docks since than
Ouch
Surprised me this ship...hated kronshstadt but this seems so much better 🤷
Hail Caesar! GG!
I like the ship got a kracken in it. So far so good.
It is called krake, german word for octopus
Im French, you pronounced Carnot perfectly the first time (silent t), and Lemonnier perfect also
Awesome! I do try but I'm awful
@@SpartanElite43 No you're not. C'est parfait cher ami !
@@SpartanElite43 A little american accent but hey after all, you're american ^^ You do a better job than a french pronouncing english ^^
So was i right spartan? You like the guns yeah? Maybe a little fine tuning for other aspects, but its a fun cruiser with bb guns.....😀
Can u make another Prinz Eugen Video?
Maybe
I managed to destroy the Carnot with an Odin in one of my matches.
They should have given Drake the Same armour layout as the Carnot 😒
A like and a comment. :)
Day 16 of asking Spartan to make a video about Skåne and Östergötland
Received and sold in under 20 seconds
