[[File:Wows flag Thailand.png|50px|right|frameless|link=]]Formerly HMS ''Radiant'' of the [[Ship:Ships of U.K.|British Navy]], she was sold to the Royal Thai Navy in 1920 and renamed. She could travel at a very high speed and carried very good armament. For most of her service life, she was the most powerful torpedo ship in her country's service.


|Performance=<!-- write text about performance in battles below -->
===Pros===
{{AA Sidebar Warning Insert}}
* Pro 1
Tier III's ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' plays very similarly to her predecessor ''[[Longjiang]]'', and shares many of the same strengths and weaknesses. 
* Pro 2


''{{#var:ship_name}}''’s torpedoes are quite good for her tier, and will inflict heavy damage upon the cruisers and battleships — and occasional aircraft carriers — she encounters; unfortunately, as deep water torpedoes, they are useless against smaller enemy units.  This means she must rely upon her main battery when in close combat with opposing destroyers.  Her 102mm guns are adequate, but not exceptional.  At point-blank ranges (~5.0 km or less) they are good enough for self-defense, and fire quickly enough that they are likely to discourage enemy destroyers from pushing closer.  Shell flight times out near her maximum range of 8.7 km, however, will make hitting anything but slow-moving battleships very challenging.
===Cons===
* Con 1
* Con 2


''{{#var:ship_name}}'' captains should use her stealth and torpedoes to make quick work of enemy battleships and avoid engaging enemy destroyers at all costs.  Her stealth makes her an excellent ship to capture control points in, as long as captains have a pre-planned exit strategy if spotted.  Aggressive captains may feel comfortable taking on wounded destroyers — or hiding in a bank of smoke to harass enemy capital ships — with her main battery; this is a valid tactic, of course, but given her very low health pool (second-lowest at Tier III) the price for getting spotted is likely a quick trip back to port.

The Hull (B) upgrade is really the only place to invest experience gains; given her shell performance, captains are encouraged to simply ship the GFCS upgrade and move on up the tech tree.

Key skills for ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' commanders include Last Stand, Survivability Expert, and Concealment Expert. It's difficult to recommend investing skill points into buffing her main battery via Advanced/Basic Firing Training or Demolition Expert, but it's all she can rely on when up against enemy destroyers and may be worth sinking some points into for highly aggressive captains.

===History===
==Gallery==
''HMS Radiant'' was a Royal Navy and Royal Thai Navy ''R''-class destroyer constructed and then operational in the First World War.
<div class="b-popup"><div class="b-popup_head js-tech-nav_head"><div><h2>WoWs Gallery</h2></div><span class="b-tech-nav_arrow"></span></div><div class="b-popup_content" style="display: none;"><div>


She was later sold back to Thornycroft on 21 June 1920, who then sold her on to the Royal Thai Navy in September 1920. She was renamed ''Phra Ruang''. It is believed that in order to finance her acquisition King Rama VI and other senior figures donated personally to the finance fund, making this the first publication donation of money to procure a warship in Thailand. The Royal Prince Admiral Abhakara Kiartivongse went to England to negotiate the purchase personally and command the ship during its subsequent voyage from England to Thailand.
<gallery>
</gallery>
</div></div></div>


Because of her continued service in the Thai Navy, the destroyer was the last of the ''R'' class destroyers to survive, being stricken from the Thai Navy list in 1957. It is reported that she remained in use as a training hulk and as of 2000 was still afloat, but has since been moved ashore and encased in concrete at a shrine to Admiral Prince Abhakara Kiartivongse.
