Paolo Emilio — Italian premium Tier IX destroyer.

After the beginning of naval cooperation between Italy and the U.S.S.R., the Ansaldo company prepared a number of ship designs under Soviet orders. An armored scout with a standard displacement of 3,700 tons was among them. The ship had high speed, eight 130 mm guns in four mounts, and armor protection in the form of a full-fledged armored belt and armored deck.

Paolo Emilio was first released for sale on 30 Sep 2020.

Player Opinion

Performance

Also known as 'Yolo Emilio', Paolo Emilio has a very dangerous trick up her sleeve. Using her Exhaust Smoke GeneratorGenerates a smoke screen that allows the ship to remain undetected at full speed. and Emergency Engine PowerWhile active, increases a ship's speed by a fixed percentage., she can rush a battleship undetected and untargeted, pumping the contents of one or two torpedo racks into her victim from relatively close range. Very few ships can survive a strike by four or eight 24K warheads. Then, if she's lucky, Paolo Emilio can go dark to plan another attack.

Pros:

  • Largest hitpoint pool among Tier 9 destroyers
  • Good main battery ballistics - high shell velocity and flat arcs
  • Has access to both SAP and HE shells
  • Heavy torpedo armament of three quadruple launchers with high damage and flood chance, and good speed
  • Has a 60mm thick armor belt, can shatter most HE shells and, with the right angling, bounce AP shells
  • Very high ship speed, aided by a unique Emergency Engine PowerWhile active, increases a ship's speed by a fixed percentage. consumable which when active, it becomes possible to exceed 60 knots with appropriate flags and skills making it the fastest ship in the game
  • Using the Exhaust Smoke GeneratorGenerates a smoke screen that allows the ship to remain undetected at full speed., she can stay hidden even at full speed

Cons:

  • Poor main battery rate of fire
  • Short main battery range
  • Torpedoes are short-ranged and have a slow reload speed
  • Weak and short-ranged AA defenses, vulnerable to plane attacks
  • Large turn radius and sluggish rudder shift
  • Both Exhaust Smoke GeneratorGenerates a smoke screen that allows the ship to remain undetected at full speed. and Emergency Engine PowerWhile active, increases a ship's speed by a fixed percentage. have short duration and long cooldown
  • Poor concealment for a destroyer
