Like New York, her 14-inch guns are more than a match for the foes she will encounter at Tier V and VI, though she will struggle a bit more when up-tiered into Tier VII games. Largely impervious to aircraft attacks, Texas can then focus her attention where it belongs: on enemy surface vessels. While it makes picking up the Advanced Firing Training commander skill an easy choice, it does leave players with a hard decision between AA Modification 2 and Artillery Plotting Room Modification 1 for Upgrade Slot 3. Most of that punch is packed into her 40mm Bofors guns, which have a maximum range of only 3.5km.

Texas boasts more than three times the anti-aircraft firepower of New York indeed, she has more AA power than any other battleship of any nation until North Carolina at Tier VIII.

The primary difference - and what everyone talks about when talking about Texas - is her ridiculous (for Tier V) anti-aircraft suite. There are subtle differences in her speed (0.5 kts slower), detectability ranges (more visible from the air), and rudder shift (slightly worse) the firing angles of her middle turret are a vast improvement over those aboard New York. She has essentially the same primary statistics as New York her health pool, armor, guns, turret traverse, and range are all the same. Texas is a late World War II variant of the American Tier V New York-class battleship.
