Mutsuki — Japanese Tech Tree Tier IV Destroyer.

Developed from the Minekaze class and equipped with reinforced torpedo armament. This class inherited high speed and sufficiently powerful artillery from its predecessors. The greater dimensions of these destroyers made it possible to equip them with 610 mm torpedoes.

Entered Service: 1926
Ships in a series: 12

Ship Traits
Hidden: Good concealment means the ship can get closer to enemies before being detected.	Big Yield: Above average torpedo damage.	Sluggish Aim: Below average main battery traverse speed. Close quarters combat problematic.

Player Opinion

Pros:

• Low detection ranges (both air and sea) tied with her same nation tier destroyer peers.
• Very long 8km torpedo range that allows her to launch her deadly torpedos far away.
• Torpedoes' speed makes them easy enough to land hits.
• In terms of torpedo speed and damage, she is a more dangerous DD at Tier IV than Minekaze.
• Due to the speed and range of the torpedoes they can compete well in Tier V matches.
• Decent AA for a destroyer on par with Nicholas and will oddly shoot down a decent number of planes.

Cons:

• Reload time of stock guns is abysmal, but this can be improved with the gun module upgrade.
• Long torpedo reload time compare to Minekaze's 42 seconds, although Mutsuki gets better torpedo performance in exchange.
• Terrible gun traverse speed, even after the upgrade.
• Short gun range with only 2 shells in a salvo.
• Low HP pool.
