IX Jean Bart is a French Richelieu-class battleship. In comparison with many same-type ships, Jean Bart carries fewer main guns. These guns also have a smaller caliber, but the ship compensates for this with a higher firing rate and the availability of the Main Battery Reload Booster consumable. This feature, together with the all-forward arrangement of her main guns and potent secondary armament, makes Jean Bart a formidable opponent at close quarters for ships of any type when fighting one-on-one. Aircraft carriers will not find it easy to upset the French ship either. Jean Bart is a fast battleship with some of the most efficient AA defenses of her tier.

VIII Cossack is one of the renowned Tribal-class destroyers—an artillery ship with a large number of main battery guns, but only one torpedo launcher. She boasts great firepower and a rich set of consumables. She also has comparatively low detectability and decent maneuverability. The Short-Burst Smoke Generator consumable is a national feature of the ship, while Hydroacoustic Search helps her detect enemy torpedoes. Cossack is a very dynamic ship that is highly effective when attacking opponents at close and medium ranges.

VIII Kaga is one of the largest aircraft carriers of the Imperial Japanese Navy. Initially designed as a battleship, she was later rebuilt to fulfill her destiny of becoming an aircraft carrier. Kaga carries HE bombs, which are easier to use compared with AP bombs and are atypical of Japanese ships. The large number of aircraft she carries on her deck and in the squadron will allow you to perform effective air raids, even coming under intensive fire from enemy AA guns.

VII Atlanta is a cruiser with rapid-fire guns and effective AA armament which can be enhanced with the Defensive AA Fire consumable with an unlimited number of charges. Thanks to her numerous main battery guns, she is very effective when fighting against enemy cruisers and destroyers at close and medium ranges, while the high-arcing ballistics of her shells enable her to attack opponents from behind islands. The Surveillance Radar and Hydroacoustic Search consumables provide additional aid in fighting against enemy destroyers.

Each black ship comes with a special combat mission to be completed using the standard (not black) version of the ship. Win five battles to earn
