Rating S (Elite within its tier and class · overall score 86) · Gunboat destroyer
Gunboat destroyer, suited to light-armor shredding, DD hunting. It is especially strong against destroyers and cruisers (SAP deals a same-tier destroyer's HP in about 89 s on paper). Its SAP main battery DPM of 28,227 is 36% above the same-tier destroyer average. Top speed of 37.2 kn is 1.3 kn above average, with good turning. SAP deals heavy direct damage to destroyers, light cruisers and superstructures with no overpens, but it cannot start fires or damage armor thicker than its penetration.
