Västerås — Europe Tech Tree Tier VI Destroyer.

In 1933 and 1934, the Polish Navy, planning to build a series of new destroyers, held a competition involving European shipbuilders. Kockums, a Swedish shipyard from Malmö, also participated in the competition with its project. The project was based on the Göteborg-class destroyers that had just been laid down and differed from them with a 50% greater displacement and enhanced armament. The prevailing project came from a British firm, resulting in the appearance of the Grom-class destroyers.

Pros

Great speed and solid maneuverability
Relatively long torpedo range and good torpedo speed
Access to Repair Party

Cons

Poor main battery performance
No Smoke Generator consumable
Low torpedo damage
