Which naval games can also work as simulations

Which game best models Great War battleships: World of Warships, War Thunder, or Ultimate Admiral: Dreadnoughts?

Ultimate Admiral: Dreadnoughts offers the stronger gunnery calculations, War Thunder supplies more atmosphere, and World of Warships is best treated as a deliberately game-like experience.

Ultimate Admiral: Dreadnoughts requires players to build the ships and has limitations, but its gunnery calculations are judged the strongest of the three. War Thunder supplies a more convincing atmosphere and can be used as a simulation as well as a game, depending on how it is played. World of Warships is praised as enjoyable while remaining deliberately game-like in its overall setup. Historical simulation value depends on the mechanics being examined rather than on a single claim of realism.
