AL Kearsarge — USA · Tier IX · Battleship

An Eagle Union hybrid battleship and a manifestation of the ideal of versatility, with each seemingly mechanical action serving a definite purpose. While she initially gives off an expressionless impression, the more one gets to know her, the more her kind and somewhat lonely nature becomes apparent. From the Azur Lane game.
