robihr Players 3,168 posts 9,352 battles Report post #3 Posted December 16, 2017 1x4 torpedo tubes? meh... max speed 36kts? meh.. 3x2 120mm guns with 808m/s inital velocity.. expecting little better arcs than mahan, but not much... only thing great is concealment and hp.

And they also annouced Monaghan, a Farragut C-hull, but with better stealth than Farragut ... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[TACHA] triumphgt6 Players 1,870 posts 22,638 battles Report post #9 Posted December 16, 2017 Shame is not really Cossack, which had 8 4.7" guns - would be nice if we got Captain Philip Vian with her - maybe with a refrain of 'The Navy's here!' However looking forward to getting her! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basically continuing WG's trend of DD designed to keep BBAbies happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm just looking at your Gadjah Mada/Gallant stats.

However looking forward to getting her! Cossack only had eight 4.7" guns for 4 months before they swapped "X" turret in December 1939, even before the Altmark incident. Philip Vian would make an awesome captain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why not, Kiev 2x85mm are counted as secondary guns so I guess it would be same for Cossack. Same 4" guns are already a secondary guns on majority of RN cruisers and some battleships.

No thanks, it looks thoroughly indifferent, I certainly won't spend money to get that. A hard pass from me too. Even the Monaghan looks more interesting than the Cossack, and that's a C-hull Farragut. This ship just doesn't tickle my fancy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
