  Is this a bug? I'm not so sure on whether it is or just a feature of the game. |

I had the same thing with the US building endless swarms of 89,000 tonners while the biggest dock in the world was only ~69k. |

This might also be a case of imperfect information, your spies underestimating enemy docks or overestimating the tonnage of that ship. That said, the AI often builds tech that shouldn't be available (most often catapults and DP secondaries). |

So its either my spies are over estimating or the Ai is being a bit of a cheating little snake.

A question for everyone experiencing this, are you playing with the AI ship designs mod?

I've found this too, and it does seem that the AI will definitely cheat and build super battleships larger than they should be able to if you are using the AI designs mod that allows them to build ships of such a size. If you aren't using that mod, I have no idea, as to my knowledge there are no AI ship templates that go that big in the base game (even ships larger than 50k tons are rare). I've also heard that they cheat with tech as well and that it is likely that their super battleships are armed with 20 inch quality 1 guns. Have fun with those.

Yes, but I can't say for sure it didn't happen when I didn't use one because the AI rarely built super heavy ships. I only ever verified dock size because the AI had built a super heavy battleship and it had caught my attention. Small scare cheating is far less noticeable as they say. |
