Småland — European special premium Tier X destroyer.

One of the largest and most powerful destroyers in the Swedish Royal Navy, armed with highly effective 120 mm main guns that boasted a high rate of fire. The ship's distinctive feature was her torpedo launchers with different numbers of tubes.

Småland is now preserved as a military museum ship at Maritiman in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Player Opinion

Performance

Småland is a Tier X European premium destroyer, researchable for 2,000,000. It is a sister ship to the tech tree Halland, but has some significant differences compared to her tech tree counterpart - most importantly, Småland has access to Surveillance Radar .

Whereas Halland is a well-rounded generalist ship centered around its torpedoes, Småland is far more specialized in its role, and relies much more on its guns. Its torpedo armament (an unusual arrangement of one 5-tube launcher and one 3-tube) is significantly weaker than Halland's in most ways, but on the other hand, its main battery is one of the strongest of any destroyer in the game. The firing range is somewhat limited (although not as severely as on the Halland) and the ballistics are mediocre at best, but the damage output is extremely high. Without access to a Smoke Generator though, actually using the guns extensively is usually not so easy.

In addition to the exceptional main battery, Småland also has access to Surveillance Radar , as well as an unusual Emergency Engine Power  consumable with a short duration but a strong speed increase. Like the other European destroyers, it also has a Repair Party . With this in mind, it is clear that this ship is highly specialized for a particular task - hunting other destroyers. It can detect other destroyers with its radar, engage or disengage with the engine boost, and it outguns almost all other destroyers while also being able to repair incoming damage.

Of course, the downside of this specialization is that the ship becomes less effective outside of its specialization. One of the strengths of its tech tree sister Halland is that the long-range torpedoes and strong anti-aircraft defenses make it relatively resilient against both radar and aircraft carriers, but Småland is not as strong in this regard. Its torpedoes are both shorter ranged and weaker in general, and while the anti-aircraft defenses are good for a destroyer, it lacks access to Defensive AA Fire.

When fighting other destroyers, Småland is devastatingly effective. However, it is far less flexible than its tech tree sister and generally less effective at fighting other ship classes.

Pros:

Exceptionally strong main battery damage output.
Fast torpedoes with a relatively quick reload and decent range.
Good anti-aircraft defenses.
Unique, strong Emergency Engine Power  consumable.
Mounts Surveillance Radar .

Cons:

Large and unwieldy hull, with poor top speed.
Only 8 torpedo tubes, with very low damage per torpedo
Poor concealment for a tier X destroyer
Short duration Emergency Engine Power , though an extra charge.
No Smoke Generator consumable

Research

As a premium ship, Småland doesn't have any modules to research.

Consumables

Småland equips the following consumables:

Slot 1: Damage Control Party 
Slot 2: Emergency Engine Power 
Slot 3: Repair Party 
Slot 4: Surveillance Radar

Camouflage

As a premium ship, Småland comes with Type 20 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, reduces her repair costs, and increases the amount of experience she earns.
