HMAS Vampire II was laid down in July 1952 and named after her war-period predecessor. She differed from her British prototype with her specialized guns designed for operation in tropical waters. During the period from 1970 to 1972, the destroyer was equipped with the most advanced electronic equipment, and in 1979, she became a training ship. In 1990, Vampire II was transformed into a museum ship.</p><p> </p></div>
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a Tier 10 premium Commonwealth Navy Destroyer, of the Australian Daring class, a modified variant of Daring built in Australia. She is currently moored in Sydney, Australia as a museum ship.<br><br>She is available in the [[Ship:Research Bureau|Research Bureau]] for 55,000{{RP}}.


|Performance={{AA Sidebar Warning Insert}}
===Pros===
<h4>The Ship</h4>
* High damage per minute
In game, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' has one quintuple torpedo launcher to ''[[Daring]]'''s two and no Repair Party consumable, but improves on ''Daring'' in most other regards. ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' has higher main battery damage output, longer range torpedoes, better concealment, and access to a 5 km {{Hydroacoustic Search}} and {{Crawling Smoke Generator}}.
* Access to the Hydroacoustic Search consumable
Players need to be careful with ''{{#var:ship_name}}'', using her impressive features and consumables to control the engagement. She punishes mistakes and is punished for her own mistakes in turn; by contrast, ''Daring'' with her short cooldown smokescreens and Repair Party can compensate for some mistakes.
* Low detectability
<h4>The Hull</h4>
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' has a large profile but with an impressive surface detection of 5.8 km and an air detection of 2.7 km with full build. She has a small health pool of 19,800 and mediocre AA that can shoot down fighters but won’t protect her from strikes.
<h4>Armament</h4>
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' carries six 113 mm guns in three twin turrets, in an AB-X configuration.
The main guns fire the same HE and AP shells as ''Daring'' with low damage per shell, high shell arcs and a 12.8 km range. However, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' has an improved damage output because of her 2.5 second reload. Her AP shells are highly effective against broadside destroyers and the superstructures of larger ships, and retain the improved penetration angles of ''Daring''. For most conditions players should rely on ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' 's HE shells that in combination with her quick reload, have an impressive fire chance of 8%.
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' 's torpedoes are limited to one five-torpedo rack, located at the center of the ship. They can reach out to 12 km, 2 km farther than ''Daring'', reload faster at 96 seconds, deal more damage — 19,500 per torpedo and have a better flood chance.  Like her Royal Navy cousin, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' can fire her torpedoes with a narrow spread or individually.
<h4>Mobility</h4>
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' retains ''Daring'' 's improved acceleration, effectively giving her a baked-in Slot 4 Propulsion upgrade, but like ''Daring'' she can’t select the actual upgrade. While ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' accelerates quickly, her base top speed is quite slow at 35 knots, and her 680m turning circle is wider than ''Daring'' 's. Unlike ''Daring'', she carries the {{Engine Boost}}, which increases her top speed and acceleration.
<h4>Battle Performance</h4>
At a glance, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' appears to be very similar to ''Daring''. However, her small health pool and lack of a Repair Party mean she can’t sustain extended fights with other destroyers. She is subsequently a less forgiving ship to play. She needs to pick her fights carefully and be more careful with her health pool.
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' 's {{Crawling Smoke Generator}} is versatile and she can travel at a quarter speed and while remaining in smoke. Unfortunately the consumable has a long cool down so players will want to be careful not to employ it reactively. Players should use her smokescreen combined with her impressive concealment and 5km {{Hydroacoustic Search}} to ambush and kill enemy destroyers.
While her smokescreen is on cooldown, her improved torpedo range gives players some flexibility against enemy radar ships.
''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a distinctly different ship to ''Daring'' and arguably more difficult to play effectively. Experienced destroyer players will be able to make the most of her strengths, but inexperienced players will find her less forgiving than ''Daring'' due to her lack of Repair Party and Short-burst Smoke Generator.

Vampire II — Commonwealth Special Tier X Destroyer.

After World War II, Australia started building four destroyers designed on the basis of the most advanced British destroyer—Daring. HMAS Vampire II was laid down in July 1952 and named after her war-period predecessor. She differed from her British prototype with her specialized guns designed for operation in tropical waters. During the period from 1970 to 1972, the destroyer was equipped with the most advanced electronic equipment, and in 1979, she became a training ship. In 1990, Vampire II was transformed into a museum ship.

Pros

  • High damage per minute
  • Access to the Hydroacoustic Search consumable
