Rating B- (Below average within its tier and class · overall score 42) · Long-range destroyer
Long-range destroyer, suited to spotting. It is weak against cruisers (AP deals a same-tier cruiser's HP in about 4 min on paper). 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. Firing 4 120mm guns every 2.5 s, it reaches 33,984 HE DPM. Main battery range is 9.2 km (0.5 km longer than average), and dispersion at 6 km is about 93 m, 18% tighter than average.
