Tier IX · Destroyer · Germany · Premium
Rating C+ (Lower-mid within its tier and class · overall score 37) · Agile destroyer
Agile destroyer, suited to spotting. It is weak against cruisers (HE deals a same-tier cruiser's HP in about 4 min on paper). Firing 4 127mm guns every 3.2 s, it reaches 30,366 HE DPM. Strong AA fends off carrier strikes well. Key skills: Rapid Reload II ×2 (main battery reload +43%, 20 s); Air Defense Alert II ×3; Smoke Generator II ×2 (11 s deploy, 28 s linger); Radar II ×2 (8.1 km, 10 s). A firepower equipment build improves reload 3.2→3.04 s, dispersion 108→98 m.
