![]() With only a single rack of five cumbersome torpedoes, she cannot be expected to reliably make use of them. ![]() However, all is not sunshine and roses with Kidd, as her primary fault is rather glaring: the lack of an effective torpedo armament. Her concealment is on par with both ships, and her health pool sits in the middle between the two. ![]() Her rudder shift is slightly better than that found on either ship, but she has a wider turning circle. Maneuverability wise, Kidd straddles a line between the Benson and Fletcher: she is faster than the latter, but not as fast as the former. She's also uniquely equipped with the Repair Party consumable, adding to the survivability afforded by her relatively large health pool. In addition, Kidd has all the firepower of Tier IX's Fletcher, boasting five (5) fast-firing 127mm guns perfect for the role of decimating enemy destroyers or severely annoying larger surface ships. Even without fully investing in the skill and modules for AA firepower, triggering Defensive AA Fire will cause no small amount of concern to enemy planes. Fully committing to an Anti-Aircraft Build will cause Kidd to become a respectable opponent for enemy aircraft carriers (or, more precisely, a target to be actively avoided). Having the hull of a Fletcher-class destroyer, Kidd gains access to a rather impressive array of anti-aircraft armament and the Defensive AA Fire consumable. She also has a single launcher of Benson torpedoes, completing the composition of this Frankenstein-esque Tier VIII premium destroyer. ![]() However, unlike Fletcher, Kidd fulfills a more niche role and plays similarly to Sims. Hull-wise, she is a Fletcher-class destroyer, with the guns of her Tier IX parent. Kidd plays like the love-child of Fletcher, Benson, and Sims. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.įor a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS". ![]()
