Fubuki

Ship Overview

All Ships

 Fubuki — Japanese • Tech Tree • Tier V • Destroyer.

This "special type" destroyer shaped the development for destroyers in all navies of the world. Fubuki's greater dimensions allowed for significantly greater firepower, AA artillery and an even more powerful torpedo armament. In terms of speed, however, Fubuki was somewhat inferior to destroyers of preceding classes.

Player Opinion

Destroyer - Fubuki

Pros:

• Respectable HP pool.
• Detection radius is better than gunboat destroyers she is likely to run across.
• High volume of torpedoes and highly flexible torpedo launcher configuration (three triple-tube launchers).
• Upgraded torpedo range allows greater versatility and opens the possibility of long-range launches.

Cons:

• Top speed is low; she cannot outrun pursuing American or Russian destroyers or even some enemy cruisers.
• Upgraded torpedoes are slow and have a large detection radius, making them easier to avoid.
• Long reload time and very poor turret rotation of main battery guns.
• Handling is a mixed bag: her rudder response is good, but her turning circle is large compared to her competition at Tier V.
