Fūjin — Japanese special premium Tier V destroyer.
A second group of 9 Minekaze-class destroyers, also known as the Kamikaze class, was built between 1921 and 1925. The ships featured an increased draft to improve their seaworthiness. Kamikaze was laid down under the name Destroyer No. 1 in 1921. Seven years later, the destroyer received her own name. In World War II, she was involved in the Aleutian Islands Campaign and escorted ship convoys to remote outposts in the Kuril Islands. In 1945, Kamikaze was reassigned to the Combined Fleet, and she formed part of the escort for both Ise-class battleships as they sailed from Singapore to Japan.

Player Opinion
Performance
Fujin is identical to the Kamikaze, except with a spooky Halloween-themed skin. She has powerful, fast reloading torpedoes that travel 7km at 68 kts with a rated damage of 14400, which can seriously hurt anything she sees. With a base detection of 6.2km (plus camo and the ability to use a high level IJN DD captain), she has a significant spotting advantage over anything else in tier that isn't another IJN DD, allowing her to deliver her torpedoes to unsuspecting targets. Her guns are far more situational, with 4 120mm guns that have a 10 sec reload base and do 2000 dmg per HE or AP shell, making them only useful against other IJN DD's in an even fight. Engaging a US or VMF DD in a straight up 1v1 gunfight is not something you want to do unless you have no other choice. The guns are decent for harassing other ships using island or smoke cover, but you need to be very careful not to draw unwanted attention to yourself. Mobility-wise, Fujin handles like most other destroyers, with 37.5 kt top speed and a rudder shift time of 2.9 sec and a 550m turning radius, faster than most US DD's at tier, but slower than the Russian destroyers.
LittleWhiteMouse's Premium Ship Review: Fujin from the NA forumsPros:
- Better turret traverse than Minekaze
- Bigger health pool than Minekaze
- As a premium ship, it makes more credits and xp than Minekaze
Cons:
- Worse AA than Minekaze
- Slightly worse rudder shift than Minekaze
- Slightly slower than Minekaze

Camouflage
As a premium ship, Fujin comes included with Type 9 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, and increases the amount of experience she earns.Gallery
