Tashkent — Soviet Tier IX destroyer.

A principios de la década de 1930, las autoridades de la Armada soviética encargaron un destructor de escuadra que construiría la compañía italiana Odero Terni Orlando. En 1937, un destructor llamado Tashkent del Proyecto 20I se puso en grada en el astillero de Livorno. El destructor líder se unió a la Flota del Mar Negro de la URSS en 1939, pero las torretas de cañones gemelos B-2LM de 130 mm que estaban planificadas no se instalaron hasta 1941. Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, participó en la defensa de Odesa y después en la de Sebastopol, donde fue el último navío en llegar a la ciudad sitiada.

Player Opinion

Performance

Nicknamed "The Blue Cruiser" despite being a destroyer due to her being larger than a contemporary destroyer and alluding to her historical paint being Cobalt Blue, the Tashkent was much maligned in her previous Tier VIII incarnation, earning a series of increasingly derisive appellations: "Trashkent", "Trashcan", "Trashcan't". Fortunately, the Tashkent received a package of buffs resulting in a quite serviceable ship even at her new home at Tier IX.

Tashkent retains the excellent guns and speed of Kiev, and, while significantly larger and less maneuverable than Kiev, her generous hit point pool and edge in range (up to 15.2 km with module and Advanced Firing Training) goes a long way towards making up for it. On the offensive side, fast-reloading torpedoes and access to the last upgrade slot are welcome advantages.

Finally, the Tashkent also introduces the intriguing option of replacing her Smoke Generator consumable with Repair Party. Both are viable; while the value of smoke in getting out of bad situations and supporting the team is obvious, the sheer longevity provided by Repair Party cannot be denied either.

In contrast to the traditional destroyer role, Tashkent should primarily be played at long range, where enemies will have trouble hitting it despite its large size, while the Tashkent's high-velocity guns can still hit the enemy. That said, Tashkent will still often find herself pressed into more traditional destroyerly duties such as screening, baiting, and capturing points when there are no better ships available for the job. Here her torpedoes should not be ignored; while they are merely mediocre, they reload quickly, making them a good option for preemptively firing into chokepoints or smoke whenever an opportunity presents itself.

Pros:

Has lethal HE shells that can burn accompanied by capable AP shells.
Very fast speed.
Large amount of hit points for a destroyer.
Torpedoes reload quickly compared to other high-tier destroyers.
Gains access to the Repair Party consumable (by giving up Smoke Generator).

Cons:

Terrible camouflage values for a destroyer, making scouting a risky proposition.
Large size, almost the same size as a light cruiser, making you easier to hit and as a result take increased damage from all sources.
Torpedoes have the same range as the Kiev torpedoes, but with 1 less torpedo per salvo.
Main battery-wise, the only upgrade from the Kiev to the Tashkent is marginally better firing range.

Research

The Tashkent has only three modules to research. The hull should be researched first, as the un-upgraded rudder shift is even more painful than missing the last 10% of range, not to mention the other benefits of the hull upgrade. The range should be researched next, and then finally the torpedoes.

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

As a Tier IX destroyer with access to all six upgrade slots, it's best to mount the following consumables: Main Armaments Modification 1, Aiming Systems Modification 1, Main Battery Modification 3 (as it relies heavily on its main batteries), Propulsion Modification 1 (as it relies heavily on its speed as a secondary defense to incoming enemy shells), Steering Gears Modification 2 (when stacked with Steering Gears Modification 3, allows for having rudder shift much like a USN destroyer), and Steering Gears Modification 3 (as the concealment is already poor even while firing and as aforementioned, this allows you to evade shells even better by having rudder shift similar to a USN destroyer).

If the player has one of the rare Engine Boost Modification upgrades and has the Sierra Mike signal equipped, it is worthwhile to replace the Propulsion Modification 1 upgrade, as it extends your Engine Boost consumable duration 50%, thereby allowing you to maintain a max speed of 48.2 kts for three minutes.

Camouflage

Type 1, 2, or 5 camouflage can be equipped for credits; Types 2 or 5 are recommended at a minimum to reduce the accuracy of incoming shells.

Players who wish to spend doubloons can equip Tashkent with Type 19 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, reduces her repair costs, and increases the amount of experience she earns.
