| + | DEs mostly behave as inferior DDs, trading combat effectiveness and versatility with cheapness to operate. They: |
| + | * Cannot be a replacement for DDs in [[Routing]], [[Quests]], and [[Expeditions]]; unless specified otherwise. |
| + | * Can [[OASW]] with only 60 ASW stat, and even at 75 ASW with no sonar (against 100 ASW for most other ships). |
| + | * Are Slow [[Speed]], and as they cannot equip [[Engine Improvement]], they cannot become fast. |
| + | * Cannot equip Torpedoes, Star shells, Searchlight, or Drums either. |
| + | * Have no Torpedo stat and therefore cannot perform closing torpedo. |
| + | |
| + | These ships are generally best used on maps with lots of submarines and no other major surface threats. |
