Overview

Burrows is a Legendary American super-radar destroyer (10 km) and an equal 10 km torpedo-detection radius so the same scan that lights an enemy DD also paints incoming torps. The kit isn't stealth-and-ambush -- the radar IS the kit; she takes caps by lighting up the contest from inside her own scan, not by sneaking in under detection. AA (378 AA DPS at 5 km, +100% Defensive AA flak burst) ranks 2 of 12 in Legendary DDs: heavy enough to make a careless strike expensive, though not the umbrella that shuts a carrier out of her grid. Standout traits: best close-range AP pen in Legendary DDs (304.7 mm) and top-decile long-range AP brick in Legendary DDs (110.5 mm).

Positioning

Hold a flank position your team can rotate behind, not a center lane your team has to defend you in.

Potato Avoidance

Idling beam-on in an obvious torpedo lane

Unspotted is not unseen: once the enemy has reason to think a destroyer is holding this cap they will put torpedoes into the water you are probably in, and one fish the size of your own (25,000 damage against 23,900 HP) is more than your whole health bar. Keep way on, cross lanes bow or stern first, and never sit still beam-on to a chokepoint you would torpedo yourself.

Signature Traits

Surveillance Radar

10 km range, 12 s duration. Detects all enemy ships within a fixed radius regardless of line-of-sight. Controls caps and punishes smoke-firing DDs.

ELITE MAIN BATTERY
  • Close-range AP brick · 304.7 mm
  • Long-range AP brick · 110.5 mm
  • Heavy HE shells · 2200 damage
  • Flat AP shells · 930 m
  • Wide always-pen zone · 60°
  • Late auto-bounce · 67.5°
Stiff AP fuse

23 mm AP arming threshold, worst of Legendary DDs. Over-pens thin plates; the trade-off pays off when most targets are battleship belt armor.

Acquisition

How to get Burrows

Burrows is a Tech Tree ship. The normal acquisition path is researching and purchasing it in its nation/class line.

Maximum simulated damage
ƒEstimate of WG's in-game value; matches the in-game port screen within ±5%. Saturation: most targets only intersect one hull section, so the sim transfers ~1/3 of the warhead alpha (2/3 when the warhead blast >= 5000 and the burst reaches a second section).

Base value; commander torpedo-concealment skills lower it further. Community torpedo-reaction calculator by u/LorenDovah and u/The_ColorOutofSpace.

Flooding chance
ƒRead straight from the game's own data: this torpedo carries a flooding-chance value of 2.59 per hit, shown as 2.59×100=259%. Torpedo flood values above 100% are normal: in battle the base chance is scaled down by the target's torpedo protection (the Torp Reduction stat on its Survivability card) and any flood-resistance modifiers, so a value above 100% keeps flooding likely even through partial protection.

ƒEach ~2 s wave fires 2 quick salvos of 2 clouds ahead of the attacking squadron - up to 4 clouds per wave × 250 damage each. Planes that fly into a cloud take its damage; clouds dissipate before the next wave lands. Defensive AA Fire, where fitted, multiplies the salvo repeats within each wave.

Max Horiz Disp75.8 m

Shell scatter width @ 5 km40 m
Horizontal scatter at a fixed 5 km, from the same verified dispersion model as the rows below - a knife-fight-range anchor comparable across ships.
Shell scatter width @ 10 km68 m
How wide your shells scatter at 10 km, from the same dispersion model as the max-range figure above. Picking a fixed range makes this number directly comparable from ship to ship: max-range dispersion makes a longer-range gun look worse even when it's tighter at any common range. The interactive Dispersion tab on the Charts card plots the full curve from 0 to max range.
Max Vert Disp45.5 m
Vertical dispersion ellipse height at max range: σV=σH·radiusOnMax =75.8·0.6=45.5m
Shell scatter height @ 10 km39.1 m
How tall the same scatter ellipse is at 10 km. Comparable from ship to ship for the same reason as the width value above. The height/width ratio is a piecewise-linear curve through three points from the ship's own dispersion data: radiusOnZero=0.2 at 0 m, radiusOnDelim=0.5 at delim·Rmax=0.5·11400=5700 m, and radiusOnMax=0.6 at 11400 m. Above the kink: k=0.5+(0.60.5)·100005700114005700=0.5754, so σV=σH·k=68·0.5754=39.1m.

AP pen 5 km211 mm
AP penetration at a fixed 5 km, read off the same PC-validated ballistic curve as AP Pen Close/Far: the shell's impact velocity at that range fed through the canonical community AP formula P=107·K·m0.69·d1.07·v1.38. Fixed anchors make ships directly comparable at the same fighting distance; the Charts card plots the full curve.

AP penetration at a fixed 10 km, read off the same PC-validated ballistic curve as AP Pen Close/Far: the shell's impact velocity at that range fed through the canonical community AP formula P=107·K·m0.69·d1.07·v1.38. Fixed anchors make ships directly comparable at the same fighting distance; the Charts card plots the full curve.
HE flight time @ 10 km6.11 s
How long an HE shell takes to reach a target at a fixed 10 km, from the same numerically integrated trajectory the Charts card plots. The shell slows under quadratic air drag, adrag=kρv2, where ρ is air density from a standard-atmosphere profile and k bundles the shell's drag coefficient, caliber and mass: k=πCdd28m=π·0.2377·0.13728·34=5.15×105. That runs from a 823 m/s muzzle velocity in 0.02 s steps under gravity 9.8 m/s² until the shell lands, then divides by 2.77: the game clock runs faster than real time, and that factor was measured against stopwatch runs in the Training Room. Lower is better, since a faster shell is harder to dodge and needs less lead.
AP flight time @ 10 km5.87 s
How long an AP shell takes to reach a target at a fixed 10 km, from the same numerically integrated trajectory the Charts card plots. The shell slows under quadratic air drag, adrag=kρv2, where ρ is air density from a standard-atmosphere profile and k bundles the shell's drag coefficient, caliber and mass: k=πCdd28m=π·0.2941·0.13728·34=6.38×105. That runs from a 930 m/s muzzle velocity in 0.02 s steps under gravity 9.8 m/s² until the shell lands, then divides by 2.77: the game clock runs faster than real time, and that factor was measured against stopwatch runs in the Training Room. Lower is better, since a faster shell is harder to dodge and needs less lead.

AA defense

AA DPS at max range305
Only families that reach 5 km contribute at the outer edge of the AA bubble. In-game families: 3in50 MK34 Radar 2x1 -> 70 DPS @ 5 km; 3in50 Twin Mark 33 4x2 -> 196 DPS @ 5 km; 20mm Oerlikon Twin 6x2 -> 73 DPS @ 2 km; Far AA (?) -> 39 DPS @ 5 km.
Maximum AA range5 km
Longest-reaching family on the in-game AA card. Base AirDefense aura max range is 5 km; dual-purpose mount auras extend it.
AA DPS layered by range305 DPS @ 5 km, 378 DPS @ 2 km
Cumulative AA DPS at each family range threshold. Inner ranges stack the outer families, so a target closing the distance hits stronger AA bubbles as it crosses each band.
AA DPS at point-blank378
Sum of every family's average DPS, achievable only inside the closest-range family (2 km).
AA threat index1671
SUM over AA auras of (aura DPS x aura range km). A plane crossing the AA bubble is exposed to each aura for a time proportional to that aura's range, so long-reach DPS is worth more than the same DPS in a short bubble. Units: DPS*km; used to rank overall AA threat across the cohort.

Bow-tank fits behind this exterior plate. Saturation is FAST here; the cap is often only a few thousand HP.

Largest HP pool. Citadel sits behind these plates; thinner deck and side plating absorb the rest.

Mirror of bow. Same fast saturation.
Citadel20 mm primary (range 13–20 mm)no cap
Citadel pen: full damageOver-pen: ×0.10 damage
Effectively no cap; citadel pool sits at ~165k HP on every ship. An AP citadel penetration deals the shell's full damage, the biggest single hit available; only over-penetrations are damped, to ×0.10.
Superstructure19 mmno cap
Any HE ≥16 mm pens at full damage
Any HE ≥16 mm pens at full damage. HE-spam target, and the section saturates fast (often only a few thousand HP).

Saturation cap = HP a section can absorb before further damage to it is reduced (the "bow-tank" effect). Citadel pool is ~165k on every ship (effectively no cap); damage is gated by pen/over-pen multipliers instead. Superstructure saturates fast but HE always pens regardless of the plate thickness. Rudder (and other module HPs) are a separate pool from ship HP: damaging a module doesn't drain ship HP. Incapacitated modules like the rudder and engine are restored by DCP, but secondary and AA mounts destroyed at 0 HP stay out for the rest of the battle.
