Description

The Fairmile A(ML100) is a tier 1 Motor Gun Boat with a battle rating of 1.7

General info

Survivability and armour

Talk about the vehicle’s armor. Note the most well-defended and most vulnerable zones, e.g. the ammo

Mobility

Write about the ship’s mobility. Evaluate its power and maneuverability, rudder rerouting speed, stopping speed at full tilt, with its maximum forward speed and reverse speed.

Armament

Primary armament

The primary Gun is a 3 pdr QF Hotchkiss cannon. It is very slow at reloading, it has a slow firing rate. It can only fire from the sides or behind the ship. It can not fire in front of the ship. The 3pdr is capable of taking out mtb's and other ships

Secondary armament

In addition to the 3 pdr QF Hotchkiss cannon the fairmile A has 2 x 7,72 mm Lewis machineguns. They are capable to destroy light armored mtb's or motor torpedo boats and enemy planes

Anti-aircraft armament

An important part of the ship’s armament responsible for air raid defense. 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 is no anti-aircraft artillery, remove this section.

Torpedo armament

Many ships are armed with torpedo launchers, and for some vessels such as boats, torpedoes are an extremely important means of defeating an opponent. Evaluate the position of the torpedo launchers, discuss the ammunition available, firing specifics such as dead zones, features of the torpedoes themselves, etc.

If there is no torpedo armament, remove this section.

Special armament

12 x Mk.VII depth charge

Usage in the battles

The best way to use this ship is to take out other slow moving ships with the 3pdr gun. The main gun fires very slowly and is slow to reload so its best to switch to the 2 lewis guns to take out any approaching boats. Watch out for mtb's, this boat is a bit slow so they will hit you with torpedos if you dont shoot first

Pros and cons

Summarize and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Do not use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - they have a substitution in the form of softer "inadequate", "effective".

Pros: good 3pdr gun, 2 lewis guns, depth chargers,

Cons: 3pdr gun is slow to fire and reload, boat is a bit slow.

History

Talk about the history of the creation and military application of the ship in greater detail than in the introduction. If there turns out to be too much historical information, put it in a separate article, taking the link to the vehicle article and adding the “/historical” block to it (e.g. https://wiki.warthunder.ru/Vehicle-name/historical) and add a link to it here using the main template. Links to sources must be provided at the end of the article.

Media

An excellent addition to the article will be video guides, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.
