Player Opinion
Pros:
- Highest rate of fire of all Tier IV destroyers.
- Much stealthier than her predecessor, G-101.
- Small but comfortable window from which she can fire torpedoes beyond her detection range.
- Maintains the forward firing torpedo launchers of the G-101 and the V-25.
- Front two main battery turrets can rotate 360 degrees.
Cons:
- High shell arcs.
- Very short smokescreen duration limits offensive smoking ability.
- No air defense capability.

Upgrades

- Slot 1: Main Armaments Modification 1
- Slot 2: Engine Room Protection
Commander Skills
Low-tier German DDs need skills that help them to survive longer. Priority Target, Preventative Maintenance, High Alert, Last Stand, Vigilance, Survivability Expert, and Concealment Expert will all help in this regard.
Consumables
V-170 equips the following consumables:
- Slot 1: Damage Control Party
- Slot 2: Smoke Generator
- Slot 3: Engine Boost
Signals
Players looking to quickly grind down the German destroyer line should mount the following signals: Equal Speed Charlie London (🚫) for faster XP gain, Sierra Mike () to compensate for her rather slow speed, and Zulu Hotel (🚫) for faster commander retraining if the player transferred the commander from G-101. Juliet Whiskey Unaone () is not recommended as battleships at this tier do not have very much torpedo protection and V-170 has quick-reloading torpedo tubes.
