Gremyashchy — Soviet special premium Tier V destroyer.
Gremyashchy, a Project 7 destroyer, was laid down at Shipyard No. 190 in Leningrad in July 1936. The ship served extensively during World War II. As part of the Northern Fleet, she was assigned to escort convoys, perform patrol duties, carry out raids, and hunt down submarines; in 1943, the ship was made an elite Soviet Guards unit. Over the course of the war, the destroyer completed as many as 90 combat missions. From 1954, Gremyashchy served as part of the Belomor flotilla.

Player Opinion
Performance
Commonly referred to as the "Gremy" (a shortening of its name), Gremyashchy is interesting when it comes to destroyers. It has fantastic gun range (nearly 12km) with a detection value of 7km, making it ideal for invisible sniping of targets. It also has the advantage of having a 1km buffer between its max torpedo range and concealment so it can launch torpedoes from stealth much like Japanese destroyers. Also similar to Japanese destroyers, Gremyashchy suffers from very slow turret traverse speeds making it less than ideal for close quarter brawls. However, its rate of fire and flat shell arcs are more than enough to enable it to fight off other destroyers with relative ease. Play her like a ranged gunboat, and she will do quite well with her 12 round per minute guns.
This ship was only available as part of the Closed Beta pre-order bundles.

- Poor anti-air armament.
- Long torpedo reload time.

Optimal Configuration
Upgrades
There are only a handful of good choices to outfit Gremyashchy. Captains are recommended to focus on Main Armaments Modification 1 in Upgrade Slot 1, Main Battery Modification 1 or Aiming Systems Modification 1 in Upgrade Slot 2, and Propulsion Modification 1 in Upgrade Slot 4.
Commander Skills
Gremyashchy plays almost exactly like Gnevny, her tech tree cousin. Commander skills on both ships will have the same focus: maximizing the usefulness of her main battery and improving her survivability. The latter is best accomplished by attempting to preserve her engine functionality (Last Stand) and health pool (Survivability Expert); however, there are other useful skills at those tiers as well, such as Expert Marksman and Advanced Firing Training. Captains will have to use their judgement to decide which is best for their play style.

Consumables
Keeping Gremyashchy’s engine in working order is paramount to her survival; captains are strongly recommended to spend the credits (or doubloons) on Damage Control Party II for the reduced cooldown on repairs.
Camouflage
As a premium ship, Gremyashchy comes with Type 9 camouflage that provides her with a buff to her concealment, a debuff to incoming shell accuracy, and increased experience gain.Gallery
