Laffey

Update 14.7 lays the keel of a new ship at the Dockyard—you can add X Laffey to your fleet by building her! USS Laffey is a renowned *Allen M.

Features: Improved Defensive AA Fire , Template:Burst Fire mode, and an enhanced Specialized Repair Teams .
Special time-based Smoke Generator .

18 phases can be completed via dedicated combat missions (including the Underwater Explosion enemy destruction effect).
2 phases must be purchased for 3,000 Doubloons each.
Starter packs: 2-phase for 5,000 Doubloons and 6-phase for Doubloons 12,500 (available until you complete 4 phases via missions).
