Overview

Cap contesting destroyer with deep-water threat is the core job. Play near capture zones and island edges where smoke, concealment, and torpedo lanes can control enemy movement. Let spotting and utility create pressure before committing to knife fights.

Positioning

Play near capture zones and island edges where smoke, concealment, and torpedo lanes can control enemy movement. Let spotting and utility create pressure before committing to knife fights.

Potato Avoidance

Treat deep-water torpedoes like universal destroyer torps

They are excellent against larger ships, but you still need guns, team support, and positioning to handle enemy destroyers.

Signature Traits

Deep-water torpedoes

Torps IGNORE the Destroyer class (deep-water mechanic); they pass under DDs and cannot hit them. Aim ONLY at battleships, carriers, and most cruisers; every torp fired at a DD is wasted, shared by 3/33 T7 DDs.

Stealthy torps

0.8 km torpedo detect, top decile of T7 DDs. Harder to dodge.

Bow-tanker

Bow plate thicker than the cohort overmatch threshold. Angle straight on and shrug off same-tier guns.

Heavy belt

Citadel belt in the top bracket. Incoming AP rarely citadels through angle.

Heavy armor deck

Armor deck in the top bracket. Plunging fire and HE land for reduced damage compared to peers.

Magazine HP

The magazine is the module a detonation comes from. Penetrating hits to it raise the detonation chance from 1% toward 30% as its HP is worn down, so a larger magazine pool rides out citadel hits longer before a detonation becomes likely.

Maximum simulated damage

Estimate 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). For this ship:

Formula validated against in-game captures on California, Sumner, Manfred von Richthofen, Dante Alighieri (exact) and within +/-17% on the remaining verified ships.

Engine power-boost threshold7 kt

Acceleration 0-90%

Time to accelerate from 0 kt to 90% of top speed (32.9 kt of 36.5). Numerical integration of the WoWS engine model with the inputs decoded for this ship:

maxPower = {(\frac{P}{m})}^{0.42} = {(\frac{62, 100}{3, 060})}^{0.42} = 3.5408

;

d r a g (v) = - \frac{v | v |}{V_{max}^{2}} \cdot maxPower

; piecewise acceleration

a (v) = {\begin{matrix} maxPower \cdot 2 + d r a g (v) & v < 7 kt \\ P (t) + d r a g (v) & v \geq 7 kt \end{matrix}

; the engine ramps over

τ = \frac{T_{up}}{2.61} = \frac{20}{2.61} = 7.7 s

. Euler step

v_{n + 1} = v_{n} + a (v_{n}) Δ t, Δ t = 0.01 s

until

t_{90} = min {t : v (t) \geq 0.9 V_{max}} = 17.3 s

. The 0.42 exponent, quadratic drag and the TimeScale 2.61 are the calibrated game constants (New York's 60/2.61 = 23.0 s spool-up matches in-game); no closed form.

17.3 s

Acceleration 0-99%

Time to accelerate from 0 kt to 99% of top speed (36.1 kt of 36.5). Same integration as the 0-90% row, read where

t_{99} = min {t : v (t) \geq 0.99 V_{max}} = 29.4 s

. 99% (not 100%) because exact top speed is asymptotic - thrust equals drag at

V_{max}

, so the last fraction of a knot is never quite gained.

29.4 s

Traverse-to-turn ratio

How many degrees the turret can swing for each degree the hull turns. Turn rate

ω_{hull} = \frac{180}{π} \cdot \frac{V_{max} (m/s)}{R_{turn}} = \frac{180}{π} \cdot \frac{36.5 \cdot 0.5144}{660} = 1.63 ° / s

, so

ratio = \frac{ω_{turret}}{ω_{hull}} = \frac{20}{1.63} = 12.3 \times

. Below 5 the turrets drag in a turning fight; 25+ keeps up with any rudder.

An AP citadel penetration deals the shell's full damage, the biggest single hit available; only over-penetrations are damped, to ×0.10.
Superstructure	19 mm	1,400 (8% of HP)	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).
Turret (module, per magazine)	separate HP pool, does not drain ship HP	8,600 magazine HP	Magazine detonation1–30% chance · below ~75% HP	Per-turret powder-magazine HP. Detonation chance scales from 1% (no mag damage) to 30% (full mag damage); this range is the in-game value. Detonation can't roll while the ship is above ~75% HP (the standard detonation-protection threshold, not a per-ship stat). Smaller magazines saturate to the 30% ceiling faster.
AA mount (85 mm mount)	separate HP pool, does not drain ship HP	200 per-mount HP	Destroyed at 0 HP	Per-mount HP for the heaviest AA on this ship. An AA mount destroyed at 0 HP stops shooting down planes for the rest of the battle; DCP does not repair destroyed mounts. HE shells specifically target AA mounts since the small-caliber HP pool falls fast.
Rudder (module)	separate HP pool, does not drain ship HP	5,200 module HP	Incapacitated at 0 HP	When module HP reaches 0 the rudder locks at its current angle until DCP repairs it. Repair via Damage Control Party.

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.
