6.8km detection without CE? Wow she's going to be stealthy, and with those guns and torps she'll be quite potent. Doesn't state consumables but I'm assuming hydro will be there. 128mm guns though, isn't that the same as the stock Gaede? IIRC she gets up to 152mm which are much more potent.

6.8 Kms concealment+concealment expert+Camo= 5.93Kms. Gaede concealment 6.6. LOL

With 8km 65knt torpedoes, with that reload time. Christ it's going to be too good as a torpedo boat. Another unbalanced premium I think.

Well, there's a chance concealment already includes the 3% of the camouflage, so it would be 6.12Kms. Still too stealthy compared to Gaede.

Yep. The 90 second reload was already great for quad launchers, reducing it to 68s pushes it into Fubuki/Shinonome '7+ torpedoes per minute' range.

...and it has excellent 128mm guns with a 4s reload and 11.6km range. (Gaede has a 5.1s reload and 10.8km for comparison)

 

Maybe it's got German smoke but no hydro for balance?

Even without hydro she's going to be pre-nerf Minekaze levels of torpedo spam, except she's going to have pretty epic guns to boot too. That reload doesn't even take torpedo rearm perk into account... insane.

1940 Type[edit]

After the invasion of the Netherlands in 1940, the Dutch shipyards were almost undamaged. Therefore the Kriegsmarinecontracted three Dutch shipbuilders to build some smaller vessels. Classed as "Fleet torpedo boats" (Flottentorpedoboot) the 1940 Type was more a destroyer than a torpedo boat, with a full load displacement of 2,566 tons and carrying four 5-inch guns and eight 21-inch torpedo tubes in two quadruple mountings, and was based on Dutch designs. Twelve were ordered in 1940-1941, and numbered T.61 to T.72; but only eight were laid down by 1942 of which three were launched (the other five were destroyed on the slips); in 1944 these three incomplete ships (T.61, T.63 and T.65) were transferred to the Baltic Sea to be completed, and T.61 was torpedoed off the West Frisian Islands in September 1944, while the other two were captured by the Allies at Kiel and scuttled after the war.

Well here is your answer why Minekaze was "adjusted"

Torps are the G7 Steinbutt  Exactly the same stats as the Guede(Tier 6) has now. Same number of guns but smaller than Guede (Same guns as stock Guede). More stealthy(.8km) but less HP. (Guede=16500HP)

IJN still have some bloody good boats..

 

Shinonome will still probably keep its place as best performing tier 6 DD

Same guns as EG, but with the 15 RPM that LM gets.

 

She trades 1,800 HP and 1 kt of speed for stealth, maneuoverability and T7 firepower, basically a meaningless sacrifice in return for everything you need to be an effective torpedo boat AND an effective gunboat.

Missed the ROF

Longer range as well, than Geude and MAAS... Guede is all about the 15cm guns though... that said guns probably need a bit of a nerf on the T 61 before release. 

 

Not saying she will be weak... she looks very very good. Main comment was about the torps just pointing out they are same as other tier 6 German DDs.

 

I completely agree that the stealth is completely worth the sacrifice in HP.

Please... Currently Minekaze has 42s reload, this thing has 68s reload - just to compare Fubuki has 76s, Shinonome 73s. That few seconds don't make much difference.

Aaaand it is still WiP. Just nerf concealment slightly and it will be fine.

Guede has 90 sec reload with those Torps.. It is a little worrying WG are going down the line of Prem ship is better than same tier non prem of said nation...

TBH I'd be happy to sacrifice the HP for the handling alone.

Current stats on T-61.. She looks like she will be OP when compared to the NON prem German DD.

But why? I don't see the problem with premiums being better (or share certain flavour of other nations) then its counterparts in the same line. I don't think they just should be better then other silvers on the same tier.

Gaede has also Hydro and ability to mount 150s. So far we don't know about consumables on this thing. If it has slightly nerfed concealment, I'm absolutely fine with it.

Why would you buy a premium if it isn't better? Something has to tempt you..
