Kunming — Pan-Asia Tech Tree Tier 11 Destroyer.

A fast and well-armed destroyer, she is essentially an enlarged variant of the U.S. Somers-class ships with enhanced torpedo and anti-aircraft armament.

Pros

• Heavy HE shell damage per salvo.
• Enhanced smoke generator consumables.(reduced reload times).
• Surveillance radar consumables are available for mounting instead of smoke.
• Low torpedo detectability.

Cons

• Shooting accurately over long ranges is challenging. (Long shell flight time makes it difficult to take an optimal target lead.)
• Can hit only cruisers, battleships, and aircraft carriers.
