Description
The Type 1936-class, Z22 Anton Schmitt, 1940 is a rank II German destroyer with a battle rating of 4.3 (AB/RB/SB). It was introduced in Update 1.79 "Project X" as part of the fleet closed beta test.
The Z22 is one of the 6 Type 1936 destroyers built for German Kriegsmarine between 1936 and 1938. Out of the five ships in the class, only Z20 Karl Galster survived until the end of war, all remaining units were lost during invasion of Norway in 1940.
General info
Survivability and armour
The Z22 does not posses any armour except its 16 mm thick steel hull protecting it from small caliber machine gun fire. The main gun mounts are protected from the front, top and sides by 8 mm thick anti-fragmentation armour shields protecting them from shrapnels. Beam main gun ammunition storage is realtively safe as its located on the waterline, while secondary ammunition storage is well above waterline, leaving it vulnerable to detonation. Stern main gun ammunition storage can be found above the waterline, directly under turret No.3 and inbetween No.3 and No.4, sharing simmilar issue of vulnerable magazines with ships such as T22.
All of the Z22 machinery is located above waterline, which opens possibility to damage by autocannons and high caliber machine guns.
The crew complement consist of 323 sailors, making it 3rd highest on its BR.
Mobility
The Z22 is quite agile ship, but it suffers from poor acceleration past 40 km/h, it takes a while to reach max speed.

Armament
Primary armament
Provide information about the characteristics of the primary armament. Evaluate their efficacy in battle based on their reload speed, ballistics and the capacity of their shells. Add a link to the main article about the weapon: {{main|Weapon name (calibre)}}. Broadly describe the ammunition available for the primary armament, and provide recommendations on how to use it and which ammunition to choose.
Secondary armament
Some ships are fitted with weapons of various calibres. Secondary armaments are defined as weapons chosen with the control Select secondary weapon. Evaluate the secondary armaments and give advice on how to use them. Describe the ammunition available for the secondary armament. Provide recommendations on how to use them and which ammunition to choose. Remember that any anti-air armament, even heavy calibre weapons, belong in the next section. If there is no secondary armament, remove this section.
Anti-aircraft armament
An important part of the ship's armament responsible for air defence. Anti-aircraft armament is defined by the weapon chosen with the control Select anti-aircraft weapons. Talk about the ship's anti-air cannons and machine guns, the number of guns and their positions, their effective range, and about their overall effectiveness – including against surface targets. If there are no anti-aircraft armaments, remove this section.
Additional armament
Describe the available additional armaments of the ship: depth charges, mines, torpedoes. Talk about their positions, available ammunition and launch features such as dead zones of torpedoes. If there is no additional armament, remove this section.
Usage in battles
Describe the technique of using this ship, the characteristics of her use in a team and tips on strategy. Abstain from writing an entire guide – don't try to provide a single point of view, but give the reader food for thought. Talk about the most dangerous opponents for this vehicle and provide recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of playing with this vehicle in various modes (AB, RB, SB).
Pros and cons
Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".

Cons:
History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the ship in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the ship and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Ship-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the ship's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).
