For players who purchased her prior to the 10.7 patch, they get access to a permanent mission granting them an additional 30% credit income, making her the undisputed best credit-earning ship in the game.

She will earn a large number of credits, not uncommonly earning at least 1 million credits with the right signals and camo.

Missouri’s other significant difference from Iowa is her status as a Tier IX premium ship. She does have a thicker forward armor bulkhead, but - just like Iowa - it can still be reliably penetrated by Yamato’s 18.1-inch shells. Other than the radar, her other combat characteristics are similar to Iowa, with powerful super-heavy AP rounds, high speed, and good anti-aircraft suite. Even if her radar doesn't catch them, the mere presence of it can zone out DDs, making it hard for them to launch torpedo attacks or deal effective gun damage. In addition, her radar is a considerable threat to enemy DDs as she or her allies can deal considerable damage to any DD caught. She is especially dangerous to British cruisers and smoke-reliant cruisers, as the radar allows her to penetrate their smoke screens and catch them off guard with a well-aimed salvo of armor penetrating shells. This completely changes her play style, allowing her to aggressively support capture areas and help her team's destroyers to win battles in those areas. The primary difference is that Missouri carries the Surveillance Radar consumable instead of Spotting Aircraft or Catapult Fighter.

She has many similarities with her counterpart in the American battleship tree tech tree ( Iowa) but with a few key differences.
