Drake — British Tech Tree Tier VIII Cruiser.

The project of a warship designed in the late 1930s, which was to be able to effectively counter the latest German heavy cruisers. Superiority in firepower was achieved through the use of 9.2-inch (234 mm) main guns.


Year of Design: 1939

Ship Traits
Sequential: Torpedoes can be launched one by one.	Hidden: Good concealment means the ship can get closer to enemies before being detected.	Pyromania: Above average chance for HE shells to cause a fire.
