Unfortunately, the effectiveness of this armament is dampened somewhat by the ship's lack of access to the Defensive AA Fire consumable. Her AA is another unusual trait, possessing one of the most potent anti-aircraft arrays at her tier for a destroyer. In fact, her torpedoes are identical to the ones found on a fully upgraded Leberecht Maass, making them fairly unremarkable other than the noteworthy German traits of good speed and stealth. Her torpedoes are a similar story, though the German destroyer line is somewhat known for all ships having similar torpedoes. While her guns are certainly powerful, it's nothing that cannot be found a tier lower. The only thing Z-39 holds an edge on gunnery wise is her longer range, as she has a nearly kilometer advantage over Gaede. Unfortunately, Z-39’s four barrels share the same reload as Tier VI's Ernst Gaede, despite her also having four 150 mm guns with identical handling. They are capable of delivery devastating salvos to enemy ships should the AP manage a full penetration, and her HE packs a good punch as well despite the limitations of German HE damage and their slow reload time. These are significantly different from the main battery guns found on other Tier VII destroyers, most of which top out around 127 or 128mm in caliber. The first unique thing about Z-39 is her main battery, which is comprised of 150mm rifles. She has surprisingly good AA despite lacking access to Defensive AA Fire, and a decent striking arm of torpedoes which reload fairly fast and travel quickly. Her 150 mm guns are some of the largest put on a destroyer in World of Warships, only matched by those available to her German compatriots Z-23 and Ernst Gaede. In fact, most of Z-39's characteristics can be described the same way. Z-39 has surprisingly good concealment for her tier, and for a German destroyer. 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".
