Usage in battles

The Type 4 Model 4 is a extremely fast Japanese Motor Gun Boat, so it is recommended that you go for capture points where you can reach first thanks to your speed. The boat is extremely good at taking care on it's own because of the variety of armaments. The dual 20 mm's are excellent for AA cover, thanks to their good fire rate. The 37 mm gun is to only be used as a support weapon rather then a main weapon, due to the slow muzzle velocity of the guns.

Pros and cons

The Type 4 Model 4 Premium Boat has all modifications unlocked as soon as you get it, so you have nothing to worry about in terms of mods. But the crew skills I would recommend getting are "Auxiliary Caliber Reload Speed" for the 20 mm's to reload faster, then you would also need "Ship Control" to turn the rudder faster, because the turn rate is a bit sluggish.

Pros:

  • Good 37 mm shell loudouts
  • Amazing dual 20 mm auxiliary guns (shreds enemies)
  • Amazing top speed
  • Extremely good acceleration
  • Armor made out of steel, so it can take on 7 mm shells
  • Carries 10 Depth Charges for close quarters engagements
  • Engines above the hull, so it will not get damaged when the compartments are taken out

Cons:

  • Slow reverse speed
  • Limited fire angles with the 20 mm, due to the bridge and rear engines
  • 37 mm has a slow fire rate and limited firing angles (you can increase the fire rate by upgrading the "Main Caliber Reload Speed" crew skill)
  • The engines are vulnerable to Artillery and other fragments, due to the placement of it

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 If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the ship and adding a block "/History" (example: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).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.

  • reference to the series of the ship;
  • links to approximate analogues of other nations and research trees.
