Loading...Tiger ’59 is the newest Royal Navy light cruiser. It’s a mini-Minotaur with Radar and Smoke, but much less DPM. She’s a support ship.
The ship was given to me by Wargaming.

World of Warships footage of the tier 8 Royal Navy light cruiser HMS Tiger.
The DPM is about ~80% of what the Edinburgh has.
after i saw what this ship is capable of , i bought Cossack xd with some extra speed + rudder + torps i guess i would choose that one.
Well, with Repulse coming in at T6, the original HMS Tiger might end up showing up as a T5 fast sniper battlecruiser like Kongo or Guilio Cesare,
Ah, I see!
Nice historical additions however
Aerroon, you crack me up. Is the British Navy a zoo? Well, yes. Yes it is. The next one should be the HMS Dung Beetle. I’m not going to say what ammo type it uses. Your imagination can fill in that gap.
Everybody knows its “Lions and tigers and bears.” (oh my)
@John Hacker Wow. That’s really neat.
A tiger? In Africa?
Tiger, Lion, Glowworm, Unicorn, Beagle, Bulldog, Foxhound… You know, RN being a zoo does make some sense
And You’ll have a Druid to rule them all 😀
You forgot Eagle.
maybe this Ship is called Tiger 59 because WG wants to have the Option to put the Battlecruiser Tiger in the Game at some Point.
Imean we are getting another Battlecruiser the Repulse. So there might be more coming in the Future.
It’s the Minotaur on a Budget, except it’s more expensive!
You can add HMS Unicorn to the zoo lol.
They should add a Tiger ’69 with 420mm guns
i mean, the conq has ~420mm guns. slap 2 of those on a ship and boom done
No just 2 more
lol the lyon killstealing the edinburgh was karma for your “kill securing” early in the match
there was an HMS Crocodile, so yeah…. The Royal Navy is basically a zoo
Daring is Minitaur, Tiger is ‘Minotame’ – Tame Minotaur
Actually killed this thing in a straight gunfight with Felix
Is that why these new Germans were created? To kill Tigers?
The turret traverse, maneuverability and pin point accuracy though. Damn!
“Wait, TIger, Lion…..is the royal navy a zoo?”
This made my day xDDD
HMS Hippopotamus, ruler of the seven seas
9:08 considering the average brain capacity you need for thunderer or conqueror I’d say they certainly have apes aswell in that zoo.
They should have honestly gone with her sister HMS Blake, then there wouldn’t have been any naming conflict with Tiger, the battlecruiser.
Also what became Tiger, Lion and Blake were a trio of uncompleted and mothballed Swiftsure-class hulls (Imagine a Crown Colony like Fiji, but the X-turret removed like on Mysore) and later finished and brought into service in the 50’s when the remaining various Town, County and Crown Colony-class ships from the war were getting rather worn out and obsolete.
Also, speaking of the citadel, I’d love to know if the post-war ship designs really had silly raised citadel sections the way WG has modeled them on Neptune, Minotaur, Albemarle etc. or if they just straight up copied the shape of the belt because they’re lazy. Since many designs like the Town-class and Crown Colony etc. have that same raised belt section, but not a raised citadel section behind it.
