General information

The HMS Armada is a British destroyer. It was introduced in Update 1.83 "Masters of the Sea" as part of the British fleet closed beta test.

HMS Armada is a Battle-class destroyer. Built near the end of the war, she diverges radically from earlier British destroyers such as the Tribals (e.g. HMS Eskimo) or the N-class (e.g. HMAS Nepal) by the very strong emphasis on anti-aircraft capability, reflected in the dual-purpose main gun turrets located in the bow of the ship and large complement of 40 mm Bofors guns.
