Devonshire Tier VI British Heavy Cruiser
British Heavy Cruiser Devonshire 1929 One of the London-class ships-British "Washington Treaty" cruisers of the second series. The large-scale re-equipment of all cruisers of this class which occurred in the late 1930s to the early 1940s provided for changes in the ships' silhouettes, and noticeable reinforcement of their armour protection. |
Main Characteristics of Devonshire.
Devonshire was a County-class heavy cruiser in the Royal Navy. During World War II, the ship evacuated King Haakon VII from German-occupied Norway, and later participated in the escort of the first U.S.S.R.-bound Arctic convoy. She sank German auxiliary cruiser Atlantis while operating in the Atlantic. In World of Warships, the ship is notable for having decent concealment for her type and a solid HP pool.
* Eight 203 mm guns placed in four turrets. The guns are peculiar for their decent HE shells that have impressive damage-dealing capabilities and high chances of causing fire on a target
* Two quadruple-tube torpedo launchers. The torpedoes can cause heavy damage and have a range of 8 km—quite good for a Tier VI cruiser
* The Repair Party consumable allows you to restore the majority of any damage that might be caused to your ship's citadel
* You can choose between the Defensive AA Fire consumable to counter enemy carriers or the Hydroacoustic Search consumable to fight enemy destroyers
* Decent concealment for a Tier VI heavy cruiser
* The ship comes with a Commander with 3 skill points and a Port slot. (Bundle Only)
