Most importantly, they gain a massive speed boost of 11 knots, putting them at just 1 knot below comparable Japanese torpedoes.

They are faster-reloading and longer-ranged than the stock torpedoes carried over from Benson, and have the highest damage in the line. The primary upgrade, however, are to her torpedoes. As with Benson, the ballistics of her guns make landing shells reliably on destroyers beyond 7 or 8 km problematic, but in close-quarters combat their sheer rate of fire will overwhelm most other destroyers. She is also one of a handful of destroyers in the game with decent anti-aircraft armament in her top configuration.įletcher retains the same main battery as Benson.

She can be tailored - via Commander Skills and Upgrades - to be a torpedo boat with good guns, or to be a murderous gunboat with above average torpedoes. Fletcher herself is, without question, the most flexible destroyer in the game.
