A heavy cruiser with 234 mm main battery artillery housed in three four-gun turrets.

Monmouth is a cruiser designed for medium-range combat. With her eight guns positioned at the ship's fore, she can fire effectively without having to show her broadside. The guns are armed with standard AP shells and signature British HE shells that have high damage, armor penetration capabilities, and chance to cause fire. Monmouth is also armed with two quadruple torpedo tubes with the ability to launch torpedoes one by one. Monmouth has thick deck armor, but low speed and mediocre maneuverability. The ship is equipped with a choice between Hydroacoustic Search or Defensive AA Fire in one slot, as well as a Specialized Repair Teams consumable.

Why "Monmouth"?

The British reverence for their history and the peculiarity of their customs are famed. In the early years of the 20th century, the Royal Navy was bolstered by a series of ten armored cruisers named after the counties. The lead ship was Monmouth, named after the county of Monmouthshire on the border with Wales. Since then, the "County" class has become a traditional naming scheme for British cruisers, as well as the missile destroyers and frigates that replaced them.

But among the ships of this turn-of-the-century class, Monmouth was a name that never reappeared in future cruisers, perhaps because the first one was lost in the battle off Coronel in 1914. Meanwhile, HMS Monmouth (F235), one of 16 Type-23 frigates, did serve under St. George's Ensign from 1993 to 2021. However, ships of this particular class were no longer named after counties, but after British ducal titles. Moreover, unlike her sisterships, HMS Monmouth (F235) was named after a title, bestowed only once, exactly 330 years ago: nobleman James Scott, who would go on to be executed in the XVIIth century for rebellion against the KIng, was the 1st Duke of Monmouth, and remained the only one since then.

World of Warships couldn't get past such an unusual background, and
decided to immortalize it with the name of a new cruiser.
