Fūjin — Japanese promo premium Tier V destroyer.
A typical Japanese destroyer that was built using the experience gained during World War I. She boasted a very high speed and powerful torpedo armament. However, her anti-aircraft suite was very weak and her main battery guns had a fairly low rate of fire.

Player Opinion
Performance
Fujin is identical to the Kamikaze and roughly analagous to the Tier V tech tree ship Minekaze, except with a spooky Halloween-themed camouflage. She has powerful, fast reloading torpedoes that travel 7km at 68 kts with a maximum damage of 14,400 points, making her a serious threat to any ship she can spot. With a base detection of 6.2km (without camouflage or a captain with Concealment Expert), she has a significant spotting advantage over anything else in her tier that isn't a fellow Japanese destroyer, allowing her to deliver her torpedoes to unsuspecting targets.
Her guns are far more situational, with four 120mm barrels that have a 10 second reload and do 2000 points of damage per shell, making them only useful against other Japanese destroyers in an even fight. Engaging an American or Russian destroyer in a straight up 1v1 gunfight is a one-way ticket back to the Port screen. The guns are decent for harassing other ships using island or smoke cover, but captains must be very careful not to draw unwanted attention to themselves. Mobility-wise, Fujin handles like most other destroyers, with 37.5 knot top speed and a rudder shift time of 2.9 second and a 550m turning radius, faster than most American destroyers at tier, but slower than the Russian destroyers.
LittleWhiteMouse's Premium Ship Review: Fujin from the NA forumsPros:
Cons:
- Worse anti-aircraft suite — what little there is of it — than Minekaze.
- Slightly slower and worse rudder shift 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
Fujin deploys smoke as she starts a fire on an enemy Bogue aircraft carrier.
Fujin and Furutaka make an excellent team.
