Special

Siliwangi — Pan-Asian special premium Tier VIII destroyer.

Volevoy, a Project 30-bis destroyer, was built at Plant No. 199—named after Lenin Komsomol, in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. She was laid down in March 1951, launched in September, and entered service in December of the same year. In February 1959, along with three other Project 30-bis destroyers, she was transferred to the Indonesian Navy and renamed Siliwangi. In total, eight ships of this class were transferred to the Indonesian Navy.

Siliwangi first became available as a mission reward on 24 January 2020 from the Lunar New Year event.

Siliwangi is a premium Tier VIII pan-asian destroyer, equipped with hydroacoustic search and hard hitting deepwater torpedoes, but with a lackluster main gun armament.

Armament:

Siliwangi carries four 130mm guns in two twin turrets. They have a stock 4.8s reload, 12.5km range, and a slow 180 degree-turret traverse time of 18.6 seconds. Her HE shells are identical to Ognevoi’s — 1,900 damage, 22mm penetration, and 8% fire chance for her HE, and 2,500 damage for her AP. Like the Soviet high tier tech tree destroyers, her shells have good velocity and flight times, requiring less lead at all ranges. However, due to having 4 total guns and poor damage per minute, they should primarily be used for self defense or farming damage from inside smoke screens.

Siliwangi carries ten deepwater torpedoes in two quintuple launchers. Her torpedoes deal 17,933 alpha damage, have a10km range, a stock reload of 120 seconds, and 62 knot base speed. With a full torpedo build, her torpedoes travel at 68 knots and reload in just 108 seconds, making them effective for area denial and a deadly threat to cruisers and battleships. Like the Pan Asian tech tree destroyers, Siliwangi uses Deepwater Torpedoes, which have very low detection at 0.8km. Enemy ships will have very little time to react or to dodge torpedoes without prior acquisition or Hydroacoustic Search. However, they are specialized at dealing damage to larger ships and cannot hit destroyers or submarines.

Hull:

Siliwangi’s hull is visually similar to Ognevoi. She has a base health pool of 17,200 and a base speed of 36.5 knots. Her maneuverability is average, with a 4 second rudder shift and a 660 meter turning radius. Her concealment is good, with a minimum concealment of 5.9km. Siliwangi does not have access to the Engine Boost  consumable and cannot increase her top speed and acceleration with said consumable.

Consumables:

Siliwangi comes with the pan-asian Smoke Generator  which has an increased 30 second action time and shorter 100 second cooldown, but the dispersion time is also reduced to 70 seconds. With the reduced cooldown, the difference between dispersion time and cooldown is (only) 30 seconds, so a new smokescreen will be available shortly after each use. They last long enough to be used to disengage, cover allies, or farm ships with her guns. Siliwangi comes with five base charges of her Smoke Generator.

She also carries Hydroacoustic Search  consumable, the same one found on Loyang. The Hydroacoustic Search has a 110s action time followed by a 120s cooldown. It detects enemy ships at 5.5km and torpedoes at 3.8km. With the combination of smoke screen and Hydroacoustic Search, Siliwangi can contest key areas by keeping enemy destroyers spotted and alert allies of incoming torpedoes.

Battle Performance:

Siliwangi serves the role of a torpedo-focused destroyer, with good concealment, high damage deepwater torpedoes, and lackluster gun characteristics. Her torpedoes are good at denying key areas and attacking large targets. Her guns, while not impressive in terms of reload or damage per minute, can help kill destroyers with their good velocity.

Siliwangi’s consumables allow her to contest key areas and help her allies. Unique Pan Asian smokescreens offer versatile play, allowing players to cover allies, disengage, and farm targets, all while reloading quickly. 5.5km Hydroacoustic Search allows Siliwangi to spot destroyers behind islands in capture zones and incoming torpedoes. The combination of self defense smoke screen and hydroacoustic search allows her to fight enemy destroyers around key areas, with the help of her allies. Due to lacking Engine Boost, Siliwangi will not be able to outrun faster destroyers and can be vulnerable when caught out of position.

Pros:

Good shell velocity and flight time
Deepwater torpedoes with low detection
Good concealment
Smoke Generator  with increased action time, reduced cooldown, and extra charges
Access to 5.5km Hydroacoustic Search

Cons:

Low gun count
Deepwater torpedoes cannot hit destroyers
Low damage per minute
Torpedoes cannot hit destroyers or submarines
Does not have access to Engine Boost
