Gremyashchy — U.S.S.R. Premium Tier V Destroyer.

Gremyashchy, a Project 7 destroyer, was laid down at Shipyard No. 190 in Leningrad in July 1936. The ship served extensively during World War II. As part of the Northern Fleet, she was assigned to escort convoys, perform patrol duties, carry out raids, and hunt down submarines; in 1943, the ship was made an elite Soviet Guards unit. Over the course of the war, the destroyer completed as many as 90 combat missions. From 1954, Gremyashchy served as part of the Belomor flotilla.

• High main battery damage per minute
• High main battery shell velocity
• Long-ranged, fairly fast-reloading torpedoes compared to other Soviet Destroyers

Cons

• Very slow main battery mount traverse
• Mediocre concealment
