Special

Juruá — Pan-American special premium Tier VI destroyer.

In 1939, Brazil ordered from Great Britain a series of six modern H-class destroyers with enhanced anti-submarine weapons; however, due to the outbreak of World War II, the British bought these destroyers out. The lead ship, Juruá, was initially named HMS Handy in the British Navy but was then renamed HMS Harvester. She participated in the evacuation of troops from Dunkirk, escorted convoys in the North Atlantic, and was later transferred to Force H and escorted convoys to Malta. On March 3, 1943, the former Juruá rammed German submarine U-444, sustained hull damage, and sank the next day after being hit by submarine U-432.

Juruá first went on sale on 11 February 2021.

Juruá marks the third entry of Pan American ships into World of Warships. In game terms, Juruá is a clone of HMS Gallant. She is something of a mix of existing destroyer styles, packing torpedoes that will remind players of those found on Japanese destroyers married with main battery guns that are analogous to those of the American destroyer line.

Juruá’s torpedoes are identical to those deployed aboard Tier VI British cruiser Leander and pack a nasty punch for the tier, topping out at over 15,000 alpha damage. She carries them in a pair of quadruple-tube, centerline-mounted launchers — just like American counterpart Farragut — with a speed and range similar to the fish found deployed aboard Shinonome and Ernst Gaede. What makes Juruá unique is that she retains the ability of British cruisers to launch her torpedoes singly. This greatly increases her tactical flexibility, allowing her to spread her torpedo salvos around in a variety of different directions and angles and wreak havoc on enemy formations. The trade-off for this flexibility is the longest torpedo reload of all Tier VI destroyers and some of the worst torpedo firing angles of any destroyer in the game; the farthest forward that Juruá can rotate her torpedo launchers is nearly 60 degrees off the bow, for example.

Her guns will feel vaguely familiar to players accustomed to Farragut. While her firing range is significantly shorter than that of her US Navy counterpart, Juruá’s reload time, turret traverse time, and shell arcs are comparable. Juruá acquits herself well in close-range combat — especially if captains equip Main Battery Modification 2 — or as an extreme nuisance to enemy capital ships with the higher-than-average (for Tier VI, anyway) fire chance on her high explosive rounds. She's more than capable of defeating any of the Tier VI Japanese destroyers or Farragut in a straight up gunfight, but her low health pool will work against her when up against Ernst Gaede or Gnevny. Unless they're badly wounded, courting a gun duel with either of the latter is inadvisable.

Packing the same standard consumables available to most other Tier VI destroyers — Engine BoostWhile active, increases a ship's speed by a fixed percentage. and Smoke GeneratorWhile active, generates a smoke screen that blocks line-of-sight for both enemies and teammates.Juruá is a well-rounded destroyer whose primary play style is likely to be focused around her torpedo armament, but who is capable of flexing her main battery guns in the mid- and late-game to finish off opposing destroyers that have survived to that point.

Pros:

  • Best turning radius of Tier VI destroyers (540 meters).
  • Second best detection range, only being worse than Hatsuharu.
  • Torpedoes are hard hitting, while being relatively fast and having good concealment.
  • Can single fire said torpedoes, just like British cruisers.
  • High fire chance with HE shells.

Cons:

  • Torpedoes reload slowly, at 96 seconds.
  • HE shells lose much of their velocity at range.
  • Low amount of health — only 12,000 hit points — puts her near the bottom of Tier VI destroyers.
  • Poor torpedo firing arcs.
  • Short main battery range.
  • Anti-aircraft armament does a pathetic 4.2 damage per second, at a paltry 1.2 km range.

Research

As a premium ship, Juruá has no modules to research.

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

The recommended upgrades for Gallant are:

Upgrade Slot 2 provides access to Engine Boost Modification 1 Increases the action time of the Engine Boost and Emergency Engine Power consumables.: +50% action time., a special upgrade that increases the duration of the Engine BoostWhile active, increases a ship's speed by a fixed percentage. consumable by 50%. This upgrade is a viable alternative to Engine Room Protection because the additional speed provides Juruá with more ability to reposition and maneuver around enemy ships while maintaining enough distance to remain undetected.

Upgrade Slot 3 provides access to Smoke Generator Modification 1 Increases the action time of the Smoke Generator, Short-Burst Smoke Generator, Crawling Smoke Generator, Exhaust Smoke Generator, and Smoke Curtain Generator consumables.: +20% smoke screen emission time., a special upgrade that increases the duration of the Smoke GeneratorWhile active, generates a smoke screen that blocks line-of-sight for both enemies and teammates. consumable by 30%. The increase is only 6 seconds but some captains might find it useful.
