Naval Academy - Destroyers

Fast, nimble, and packed with a punch that can take out a Battleship. Destroyers are the smallest of the warship type but are also a force to be reckoned with! Learn more about Destroyers in this episode of Naval Academy.

I love how these videos show DD's getting perfectly alongside for super close range torpedo spreads with maximum hits. Such moments are usually few and far between because your planning and positioning needs to be just right, and you need to the enemy to behave just right. If one of those is missing, you have to turn and flee.

[@gunfumaster1024]

My grandfather served on a Fletcher class destroyer, the USS Kidd.

[@petermelicher6908]

Great

[@vollelektrolysierer5773]

GunFuMaster Mine did aswell, 3. Zerstörergeschwader (3rd destroyer squadron), lend lease to west germany after WW2.

[@sirboomsalot4902]

Did he ever get to see the Kidd as a museum ship?

[@QuantumShock1]

/Beepbep...Beepbep...Beepbep...Beepbep...BEEPBEP...BEEPBEP... - THUDBONG! /What the hell!?.......... No...No...No...No...No...No...No...Nooooooooooo! - KAABOOM!!

[@Shane-Singleton]

Quantum Shock Yep that's pretty much it. I think I love playing IJN DD's more than anything else currently in game sans my St Louis.

[@QuantumShock1]

***** No, but a 15 sec rudder shift time makes it hard to avoid 35 knot torpedos.

[@NemesisHD]

You can make the model of Hellenic Armored Cruiser ''G.AVEROF'' The ship that ALONE hunted down inside the Bosporus straits the ENTIRE TURKISH NAVY. Hellenic Navy's Georgios Averof, constructed in 1909-1911, is preserved as a museum in Palaio Faliro, Greece and it is the only armored cruiser worldwide still in existence.

[@michaeledmunds1767]

Are you saying modern cruisers don't have armor?

[@NemesisHD]

Michael Edmunds They do have but no on that scale , you can see the most recent incidents UAV falled to USS Destroyer , or the incident with the Egyptian ship

[@michaeledmunds1767]

Nemesis HD Fair enough. Nowadays the priority is more about maneuvering capabilities, stealth, and utility.

[@NemesisHD]

Michael Edmunds yeah , the key in modern warfare is the element of fast attack , stealth only for oceans , not for sea like Aegean .

[@michaeledmunds1767]

Nemesis HD If by that you mean only submarines can be stealthy, you haven't seen the newer ships like the zawalt class destroyer. :)

[@grave_i]

2:46, there, you see the glorious WoW’s matchmaking. It’s every day a tier 4 DD goes up against a tier 10 Yamato.

[@Delta1234567891011]

7:10 that must have hurt

[@Bonqiqi]

TORPEDUS!!!!!

[@Bigfunkytown]

Working my way up IJN DD's. Nice ships.

[@Hawktotalwar]

Fun class to play in my opinion

[@sway2788]

Any one know the music that starts from 0.22 - 1.06?

[@kunyang3769]

To be honest if my torpedos miss a battleship I’m pretty much screwed :/

[@randomdumbassguy]

True

[@xuanquang9815]

well, may i ask where can i download ingame music? because listening to them in the game is not enough for me

[@Wolvenworks]

i see the Atago and Atlanta prem ship on the tech tree guys, looks like we're getting a new prem incoming (damn i regret not buying Yuubari)

[@randomdumbassguy]

Destroyers: Very stealth Fast Powerful Jack of all trades Too many torpedos Smol

[@elasolezito]

Game is great so far, just needs some balancing (destroyer turns invisible less than half km) and some updates in ships sinking animations/explosion along with op fire damage.

[@dantelus4173]

i like the voices ;) its Epic

[@kaymurakami3320]

3:01 Uhm I don't think that's a Farragut that looks a lot more like a Mutsuki.

[@TheEpicminecraft70]

You forgot the gremyachy

[@AMX30]

TheEpicminecraft70 yep, and it's a pretty good DD ( at least for me is much better than the american)

[@Pliskkenn]

AMX30 It's awesome, but that turret traverse speed...

[@Claymireko]

Not much was said about the tier 10s Destroyers :C, I wanted to learn more about Shimakaze.

[@ISAFMobius18]

Claymireko wiki.wargaming.net/en/Ship:PJSD012_Shimakaze_1943

[@MaxHDAvenger]

The Shimakaze can go up to 40 knots and its the fastest DD.

[@AlexNguyen138]

Manuel Fernandez She is not the world fastest destroyer, French Fantasque-class destroyers are the world and still the fastest destroyer after ww2 and today as well. Shimakaze have 40.9 knots/Fantasque-class have 45 knots, Fantasque destroyers were big and heavily armed but still able to reach max 45 knots speed (u can search her on google).

[@MaxHDAvenger]

AlexNguyen138 if your talking about modern warships that doesn't count in wows (only allows wwii era ships including those such as the gearing and des moines before the end of wwii)

[@AlexNguyen138]

Manuel Fernandez they're both ww2 destroyers.

[@PureM_]

Only if the kitikami cruiser was in the game still

[@minaxims]

Great to say, Japanese destroyer's torpedoes are better, but they need more XP than an Japanese Cruiser, due to it having at least 1 more quintiple torpedo tube than the top Cruiser. (don't ask me how I got an PC or an Laptop or somethin')

[@NhatTran-sm9un]

IJN Salary is not build in 1910s but 1930s

[@NhatTran-sm9un]

IJN Wakate not that ship wrong keyboard

[@TheSunkenSwede]

miles ? why not use kilometres as it is in the game ?

[@cactuarlol8288]

Ole Snejbjerg We use miles in the UK too..

[@elogrejbjens4327]

CactuarLOL And bloddy englishmen.

[@vollelektrolysierer5773]

CactuarLOL Britain went metric, didn´t it?

[@elogrejbjens4327]

Blueeagle not in everyday use, but they use it in scientific work.

[@cactuarlol8288]

Blueeagle No, we use both, depends on the situation. but for distance we generally use miles... and meters.. lol

[@Wolvenworks]

They forgot to mention that Shimakaze is seriously fast.

[@AlexNguyen138]

***** She's not the world fastest destroyer, that titles belong to Fantasque-class destroyers of French Navy and Shimakaze only have 40.9 knots while all Fantasque destroyers have 45 knots.

[@Wolvenworks]

i didn't say fastest because TBH i don't know the festest one. i say she's SERIOUSLY FAST. there i put caps on so your inferior eyes can pick it up properly.

[@Handlesarestoopid]

@@Wolvenworks but still. Plus high speed can have its backfires

[@Wolvenworks]

@@Handlesarestoopid i'm more of questioning why'd you reply to my 4-year old comment lol

[@Handlesarestoopid]

@@Wolvenworks 😏 Hmm. That's for me to know and you to find out

[@sirwohrnenvonwernohn5209]

Are you going to add the german "Kriegsmarine"(with H44), or not ? Pleeeeeaaaaaaasssssseeeee add it !!!!! I am getting crazy with out german ships! !!!

[@Fighterpilot555]

The H-klasse battleship sounds horrendously oversized, perfect targets for any destroyers or torpedo squadrons.

[@RelativeGalaxy7]

Bernd Röhrig You aren't getting H44 seeing how they were nothing more than design discussion. We should get H41 OR H42 at most.

[@killergames391]

H42 is last ship that will fit in the game limits

[@Pliskkenn]

Bernd Röhrig The only good thing about the Kriegsmarine were their U-Boats.

[@alexgraves3589]

Went the German ship and Italy ship is come.

[@mydudes9248]

The Kriegsmarine didn't do anything special during WW2, it's probably going to be a while.

[@killergames391]

The german tech tree is nearly complete they are just finding destroyers last I checked

[@jonatasnogueira7525]

Killer Games sir, could you kndly tell us in witch forum did you saw that?

[@AlexNguyen138]

Alex Graves Kriegsmarine not the powerful navy in ww2 but their destroyers and cruisers does something well against RN and FN and U-boat submarines is the backbone of their navy.

[@killergames391]

it was on the official german tech tree photos

[@schoolsundefiable4643]

Fubuki-chan needs her akagi senpai! How dare wargaming not include them together.

[@As-ky8or]

Schools Undefiable i heard that the CV akagi will be added on a different CV line.

[@schoolsundefiable4643]

But she was an IJN carrier. Premium ship then?

[@As-ky8or]

Schools Undefiable i meant that there will be two tech tree lines in the near future for the IJN CV tree. currently there is only one. but they are going to add one more tech tree line for CV in the future. and the one that they are going to add will possibly will have the akagi at tier 7 or 8 as well the shinano at most likely at tier 10.

[@schoolsundefiable4643]

Interesting.

[@clintonwalker2443]

Schools Undefiable Pretty much going to be two different CV lines for the IJN. One, which we already have in-game, built around the carriers that were purpose built as carriers, and the other consisting of ships converted to carriers that will include the Akagi and Shinano.

[@TROOPER685HD]

I like your voice :)

[@breadboi1248]

Um that's kinda creepy

[@gunfumaster1024]

Add the USS Zumwalt to the game.

[@RelativeGalaxy7]

GunFuMaster Tier I since it cant float.

[@gunfumaster1024]

RelativeGalaxy7 It can. They're planning to add railguns to it since it's the only ship with enough power to provide the energy to fire the railguns.

[@RelativeGalaxy7]

GunFuMaster Seeing how it has and it is predicted to have problems with rough water and after taking damage, it an overpriced hunk of garbage that I would call the F-35 of the Navy. Railgun? Yeah keep thinking that. You will be waiting awhile for something that advanced and stupidly expensive.

[@gunfumaster1024]

RelativeGalaxy7 Ammunition is dirt cheap. The gun itself isn't, but it does have its strengths and weaknesses.

[@thatoldmilkcarton7029]

GunFuMaster Only WW2 era ships are in the World of games. A few Cold War era ships might be in, no railguns or missiles. It's a WW2 game ffs.

[@paulstewart7529]

unfortunatly the american torpedos were toatly crap

[@davidli31]

Can you make your game in Mac version because now you are quite big enough to have more people to play in multiplayer with that way.

[@Liamv4696]

I just wish they didnt have those faulty cloaking devices that make them pop in and out of view so randomly.. If i spot you, you should remain spotted for a while, not flash on and off of my screen... You are a freaking ship for god sake.

[@BlackHearthguard]

Liamv4696 you "caught a glimpse" of it as it moved through the smoke?

[@bombalikbotsbak1705]

Liamv4696that is because of how the smoke generator works in game, it just deploys a blop of smoke every 5 sec or so, but destroyers can move out of that blop because of their high speeds.

[@petermelicher6908]

I just wish you would know the mechanics ;)

[@Personat0r]

Learn yo mechanics boi. Mechanics r erything

[@mosquito4026]

did the narrator said the Mutsuki Class is dangerous? what bullshit is that?

[@RedandWhiteGuerilla]

I assume this was made before you people nerfed DDs into unplayability.

[@yutakeda9979]

This video is clearly 1 sided. You should call it why we made USN DDs better.

[@grizzlymc6272]

Better than Russian tank bias

[@pieman141]

Yu Takeda I wouldn't say so, the IJN DDs have better torpedoes that can travel at a longer range and do more damage.

[@yutakeda9979]

better torpedoes you say? easier to dodge you mean, and by tier 9 tey are no longer better, just different! s15.postimg.org/6tlw7l9x7/post_500495173_0_96613700_1436218621.png

[@Villicy]

Yu Takeda You just confirmed that IJN dds are better ^^

[@RelativeGalaxy7]

Yu Takeda USN DD's have better main guns while IJN DD's have better concealment and torpedos.

[@_b4gr__17]

To je zas další wargaming shit ...

[@alloy299]

This video is full of BS, Minekaze is ten times better that the sad attempt of a ship that Mutsuki is.

[@infinitetoast9200]

the way they butcher the names of ships makes me cringe so hard

[@helmsdeep84]

Sooooo outdated
