Special

Shinonome B — Japanese special premium Tier VI destroyer.

Shinonome, a Fubuki-class destroyer, was laid down in August 1926 and assigned to Destroyer Division 12 in July 1928. During the Sino-Japanese War, she conducted coastal patrols and was involved in the invasion of French Indochina in 1940. During World War II, Shinonome was stationed on Hainan Island, providing cover for the Japanese landings at Kota Bharu in Malaya. Shinonome was sunk in 1941 in the vicinity of Miri, Sarawak, after being struck by two aerial bombs from a Dornier Do 24 Dutch flying boat.

Shinonome B was first released for sale on 18 November 2022.

Shinonome B, or Shinonome Black, is a clone of Shinonome with an attractive black skin.

Forgoing all of the intricate details like anti-aircraft rating and handling characteristics, any comparison of the two ships boils down to this: Fubuki has four guns in two twin mounts and 10.0 km torpedoes, while Shinonome B has six guns in three twin mounts to go with 8.0 km range torpedoes. Digging deeper, we see that Fubuki’s torpedoes not only travel farther, they hit harder: over 16,000 rated damage each compared to Shinonome B’s 14,400 damage apiece. While this makes Fubuki’s torpedoes more dangerous than Shinonome B’s, Shinonome B’s torpedoes are nothing to sneeze at. They are a comfortable middle ground between Fubuki’s two different torpedo modules, retaining the lower damage output of the Type 8 mod. 1's, but picking up some additional range as well as speed.

Both sister ships share the Japanese destroyer line's slow turret traverse; this weakness can make fighting at close range tricky, especially against American destroyers and their quick-turning guns. Shinonome B gets more gun barrels, but has a slower reload time and less range. While she won't be winning many gun duels, the extra barrels give her a bigger damage potential per salvo against weakened enemies. Shinonome B’s anti-aircraft suite is even more pathetic than Fubuki’s; captains are advised to simply disable her AA guns and never turn them on.

Overall, captains who are familiar with the play style of the Japanese destroyer line will feel right at home in Shinonome B.

Pros:

  • Hard hitting HE shells, with a good aim they are capable of doing ~3,000 damage per salvo against destroyers.
  • Guns have excellent ballistics and accuracy capable of fighting destroyers better than Fubuki.
  • Carries one more turret compared to Fubuki
  • Excellent torpedoes with the fastest reload at her tier with decent speed and range
  • Three triple torpedo launchers capable of launching 9 torpedos ~every minute, same as Fubuki.
  • Decent rudder shift time and good turn radius allows dodging shells, torpedos, aircraft easy.
  • Okay concealment.

Cons:

  • Ridiculously slow top speed for a destroyer, tied with "Fubuki" for the worst.
  • Torpedos have 2 km less range, less damage, and flood chance than "Fubuki".
  • Very poor main battery rate of fire at 9 seconds, slow turret traverse speed, and poor range.
  • Nonexistent AA with only a single twin mount, helpless against planes.
  • Despite decent gun damage and accuracy, she can still fall quickly to rapid firing destroyers if one isn't careful.

Signals

Shinonome B captains should mount standard signal flags to improve the ship’s performance in battle. Captains looking to improve upon the ship’s armament should mount Victor Lima (+1% chance of causing a fire for bombs and shells with a caliber above 160mm / +0.5% chance of causing a fire for bombs and shells with a caliber below 160mm. / +4% chance of causing flooding.), Juliet Whiskey Unaone (+15% chance of causing flooding. / +5% to the risk of your ship's magazine detonating.), and November Foxtrot (-5% reload time on all consumables.) signal flags. Sierra Mike (+5% to the ship's maximum speed.) signal flags are recommended to increase the ships top speed. Juliet Charlie (-100% to the risk of your ship's magazine detonating.) flags are also recommended to prevent detonations.


Note: Use of the Juliet Charlie signal makes detonation impossible.
