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.

Mechanics

Secondary Guns  Sec Sp_Sec serve a similar role to Main Guns. Their main stats are the "firepower"   and "accuracy"  . They are notably required to trigger some weaker Artillery Spotting attacks as well as some Night Cut-Ins, notably the "Double Attack" (DA).

  High-Angle Guns (sometimes "dual-purpose guns"), are anti-air focused guns, that can serve their main surface role, in addition to having extra   AA stats.

  • They are notably required in most AACI.

Can be equipped in the RE of certain ships.
