Akizuki — Japanese Tech Tree Tier VII Destroyer.

One of the most sophisticated destroyers in the Japanese Navy. This ship was specifically designed to provide anti-aircraft defense. Due to her significantly increased dimensions, she was equipped with new dual-purpose main gun mounts that had a very high rate of fire. Among the drawbacks of the ship were the relatively weak torpedo armament and an insufficiently high speed.

Entered Service: 1942
Ships in a series: 13

Player Opinion


Pros:

  • Quick-turning, fast-firing main battery.
  • Armor-piercing rounds are punishing against broadside ships thanks to her rate of fire.
  • Flat shell arcs in close combat means she will land consistent hits on enemy ships.
  • Equipped with a Torpedo Reload BoosterLegends_TRB.pngwith a fast cooldown.
  • Decent AA for the tier.



Cons:

  • HE shells have low damage and fire chance.
  • Only one torpedo launcher with a long reload time.
  • Slow to accelerate and low top speed for a destroyer.
  • Handles more like a cruiser than a destroyer; large turning circle radius and slow rudder shift make Akizuki feel sluggish.
