Tier VIII · Cruiser · U.K. · Premium
Rating A+ (Strong within its tier and class · overall score 74) · Stealthy cruiser
Stealthy cruiser, suited to DD hunting. Each Repair Kit restores 16.7% of max HP, up to 67% over a battle (standard 50%). Tanking damage and healing it back is this ship's biggest weapon. 3 charges of Smoke Generator let it break vision and escape whenever it gets caught. Detectability of 8.4 km is 0.12 km below average, so it is less likely to be spotted first. Key skills: Smoke Generator II ×3 (11 s deploy, 28 s linger); Sonar I ×2 (3.75 km, 25 s); Radar II ×2 (8.1 km, 10 s); Air Defense Alert I ×3.
