Tier VII · Destroyer · Pan-Asia
Rating B (Average within its tier and class · overall score 49) · Stealth torpedo destroyer
Stealth torpedo destroyer, suited to torpedo ambush. Its 7.2 km torpedoes outrange its 6 km detectability by 1.2 km, ideal for smoke-backed ambushes. Detectability of 6 km is 0.25 km below average, so it is less likely to be spotted first. Key skills: Engine Accelerator I ×2 (top speed +8%, 25 s); Smoke Generator I ×2 (9 s deploy, 24 s linger). With only 2 smoke charges, save it for emergencies. Weak guns: avoid gunfights and focus on torpedoes or spotting.
