General information

The HMS Brissenden is a British destroyer. It was introduced in Update 1.95 "Northern Wind".

HMS Brissenden, pennant number L79, part of the Hunt-class, is an escort destroyer completed and sent into service in 1943 with the Royal Navy's Home fleet. The Brissenden (Series IV) is an improvement in the Hunt-class. At glance, without much difference in the armament and design layout, but actually with several noteworthy differences.

The slow-paced fast-firing support gameplay won't vary as much, but there is now the possibility to launch a modest number of torpedoes. Anti-air armament was increased, along the crew needed to man this new equipment. Those modifications in armament and design also caused a slight tonnage increase in the displacement and thus an even lower top speed. In spite of all these downsides, the Hunt-class remains a cunning adversary.
