Tier VIII · Destroyer · U.S.S.R.
Rating C+ (Lower-mid within its tier and class · overall score 38) · Hybrid destroyer
Hybrid destroyer. Top speed of 39.5 kn is high, but sluggish rudder and acceleration make sudden dodges hard. Its HE broadside of 2,550 is 9% above average, so every salvo hits hard. Key skills: Engine Accelerator I ×3 (top speed +8%, 25 s); Rapid Reload I ×3 (main battery reload +18%, 20 s). Detectability of 6.9 km is 0.6 km above average, so it gets spotted early; move behind islands. Its weak detectability (6.9 km) drops to 6.07 km with a stealth/mobility equipment build (at −5% HP).
