8cm High-angle Gun

Introduction

新開発の長8cm高角砲です。
秋月型に装備された長10cm高角砲の小型軽量化を目指した対空用副砲バージョンです。
微妙な出来という評価もありますが、後期の建造艦艇への装備が期待されていました。

This is the new long 8cm high-angle gun.

It is a miniaturized and lightened anti-air secondary gun version of the Akizuki class's long 10cm high angle gun.

While it is evaluated to be of little improvement, it was anticipated by the warships built later into the war.

Notes

Now buildable!

Buildable as of the Kako K2 update, June 12, 2015. Stock equipment of Agano-class CLs. This can be built using (10F/10A/20S/10B) with a CL as the flagship. As with the 15.2cm Twin Gun Mount, this is also a possible by-product of the small guns and shells recipe (10F/90A/90S/30B).
