Analysis
Priority: High
- She has decent firepower but bad torpedo which makes her a subpar combat destroyer. Where she shines is her AACI which has a great fixed shootdown and high multiplier. It also triggers at a good rate which makes her one of the more reliable AACI ships. Her other key use is as a source of the critical 10cm Twin High-angle Mount + Anti-Aircraft Fire Director guns.
Recommended Roles
- Anti-air
Not Recommended Roles
- Combat
- ASW
Important Info
- An option for A84, B103, and B112.
