Wargaming giving CV's rocket planes is a huge reason for the massive abandonment of the Destroyer class, as the rocket planes can continually harass and kill destroyers who have very little counterplay, and make it nearly impossible to do their job of scouting & point capturing when a CV is stalking them.They break the game for the same reason they did in World War 2, with fast aircraft that can decide when to engage, vs surface battleships that can do nothing but try in vain to shoot down the planes. Even after Wargaming rebuilt the CV element of the game from scratch, replacing the Real Time Strategy model of the player controlling multiple squadrons in a top down map mod to a Third Person perspective where the player controls one squadron directly, it has done absolutely nothing to tamp down the desire from the much larger non-CV portion of the fanbase who want CV's completely removed from the game.

Aircraft Carriers in general have been a long hated element of the game for those who just want to fight surface battles between gun warships.Sinop is tier for tier one of the strongest ships in the entire game and a dominant force in the 16th Ranked Season, while Kremlin is at a minimum in the top 3 best non-Carrier ships in the entire game. The two standouts however are the Tier 7 Sinop and Tier 10 Kremlin. The Russian Battleship line is ship after ship of extremely tanky ships with large health pools, good maneuverability, turret traverses and good weaponry.It's generally considered that the Russian tech tree lines don't have a single bad line, unlike say, the Germans, who have a mediocre Destroyer line and a terrible Battleship line.Instead they are removed from sale, the ultimate confirmation that a ship was too powerful to allow to keep being acquired. The game developer, Wargaming, has a policy of not nerfing premium ships after they are released, to avoid causing fights with players who have spent money on those ships. World of Warships has many premium ships that are blatantly superior to the tech tree ships.
