Siroco — French special premium Tier V destroyer.
Siroco, a Bourrasque-class destroyer, was assigned to the 5th Destroyer Division of the 1st Squadron of the 1st Destroyer Flotilla. At the beginning of World War II, the destroyer was protecting convoys and scouting for German submarines. On May 29, during the evacuation of the Allied forces from Dunkirk, the destroyer evacuated 600 people. On the night of May 31, with about 900 evacuees on board, Siroco received a torpedo hit from a German schnellboot, which tore off the destroyer's propellers. The immobilized ship was sunk by German dive bombers and schnellboots.
First available through completing directives from July 25th until August 19th, 2019. Siroco returned on sale from April 17th until May 1st, 2020. Currently available in the Premium Shop.

Player Opinion
Performance
At Tier V, Siroco is a versatile ship that will benefit from a skilled commander with many available skill points. Her guns perform relatively well, although her turret traverse is a bit sluggish. She has access to the Main Battery Reload Booster consumable, which will enable her to deal significant damage to other destroyers in a quick engagement. Her torpedoes reload quickly and have a moderate range for a Tier V destroyer. With the proper commander skill to upgrade her concealment selected, Siroco has a small window to fire her torpedoes from concealment.
Players will likely find success in employing 'hit-and-run' tactics with Siroco. With no access to a smoke generator consumable, players will need to rely on speed, concealment, and range to find high levels of success in their engagements against the enemy. Siroco will also benefit from division play, wherein she is escorted by a destroyer with a smoke generator, providing her with the necessary cover to contest objectives.Pros:
- Access to Main Battery Reload Booster .
- Decent concealment for her tier, providing a small window to fire torpedoes from stealth.
- Good stock gun range.
- Agile and fast.
Cons:
- No smoke generator.
- Sluggish turret traverse.
- Slow torpedo speed.
- Only one gun per turret.
- Poor anti-aircraft armament.
