}}

== Description ==

The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a premium gift rank {{Specs|rank}} Italian motor torpedo boat {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced during [[Update "Starfighters"]] as a reward for the [[wt:en/news/6808-special-operation-s-u-m-m-e-r-2020-en|2020 Operation S.U.M.M.E.R.]] event.

== General info ==
=== Survivability and armour ===
{{Specs-Fleet-Armour}}

The ship lack armor, but usually the ammo magazines aren't dangerous since most time the crew will die before the ship exploding.

=== Mobility ===
{{Specs-Fleet-Mobility}}

The ship has a superb speed for it's size, but lacks maneuverability

=== Primary armament ===
{{Specs-Fleet-Primary}}

{{main|40 mm/70 Breda-Bofors type 107 (40 mm)}}

''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: <code><nowiki>{{main|Weapon name (calibre)}}</nowiki></code>. Broadly describe the ammunition available for the primary armament, and provide recommendations on how to use it and which ammunition to choose.''

=== Additional armament ===
{{Specs-Fleet-Additional}}

{{main|S.I. 270/533X6.84 Tipo L (533 mm)}}

The secondary armaments are a pair of torpedoes with a max range of 8km and a speed of 81km/h with a warhead of 270kg of TNT.

== Usage in battles ==

With the powerful 40mm cannons, the Freccia can shred most enemies boats with its cannons, so staying in the boat areas is really recommended since the it-s cannon can't damage most blue water ships. Carrying torpedoes would reduce the firepower against boats, but it will make it viable to kill destroyers since it's torpedoes deal decent amount of damage. One strategy to achieve that is to go in reverse and deploying smoke while a destroyer is crossing near, so you can torpedo it without getting shot since the smoke will cover you. Also, since the 40mm have HE-VT it can kill most planes without problems. Noteworthy enemies are the Pr. 206 and it's other versions, MPK Pr.12412, SKR-7, and the Saetta since those ships can deal massive amounts of damage to small boats.

=== Pros and cons ===


'''Pros:'''

* Incredible firepower with 3 x 40 mm autocannons
* Decent speed

'''Cons:'''

* No survivability

== History ==

The patrol boat P493 Freccia is the first ship of its class (MC590). It was followed by [[Saetta P-494]] and the never completed Dardo P-495.

U65522046: Copied and pasted info like what gayjin did with the kirov

{{Specs-Card
|code=ussr_cruiser_voroshilov
|images={{Specs-Card-Image|GarageImage_{{PAGENAME}}.jpg}}
}}

== Description ==

The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a gift rank {{Specs|rank}} Soviet light cruiser {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced during [[Update "Ixwa Strike"]] as a reward for [[Battle Pass: Season III, "Strength athletics"]].

== General info ==
=== Survivability and armour ===
{{Specs-Fleet-Armour}}

The ship has lower survivability than other ships at its battle rating.

=== Mobility ===
{{Specs-Fleet-Mobility}}
{{NavalMobility}}

=== Modifications and economy ===
{{Specs-Economy}}

== Armament ==
{{Specs-Fleet-Armaments}}
=== Primary armament ===
{{Specs-Fleet-Primary}}

{{main|180 mm/57 B-1-P (180 mm)}}

Kirov has 9 x 180 mm/57 (7.1") B-1-P Pattern 1932 naval cannons for her main armament, arranged in triple turrets mounted A-Bs-X. This gives Kirov a heavy punch, but her overall firepower is lacking compared to other cruisers at her BR. With a fire rate of 5 rounds/minute, she has the slowest reload among the BR 5.7 cruisers (not counting Furutaka's 20.3 cm guns).

Kirov uses the OF-32 HE shell as default, with the ability to unlock the B-32 AP shell, the BP-32 SAPBC shell as well as the ZS-32 HE-DF shell. A major advantage that Kirov has is the astounding 920 m/s muzzle velocity of all her shells, meaning that leading targets will not be as difficult. The SAPBC shell sacrifices some armor penetrative abilities of the AP shell, but it is loaded with a whopping 7 kg of A-IX-2 explosive filler which is nearly 11 kg of TNT equivalent.
=== Secondary armament ===
{{Specs-Fleet-Secondary}}

{{main|100 mm/56 B-34 (100 mm)}}

The Kirov has a secondary armament of 6x 100 mm/56 (3.9") B-34 Pattern 1940 cannons arranged evenly on either side of the after smoke funnel. This is a rather light secondary battery, but they are versatile due to their clear angles of fire and ammunition selection.

These guns have access to the ZS-56 HE-DF shell as default and the ZS-56R HE-VT shell is researchable.
=== Anti-aircraft armament ===
{{Specs-Fleet-AA}}

{{main|45 mm/46 21-K (45 mm)|37 mm/67 70-K (37 mm)|DShK (12.7 mm)|Vickers Mk.V (12.7 mm)}}

For anti-aircraft armament, Kirov has 7x 45 mm/46 21-K cannons as well as 3x DShK machine guns. The 45 mm cannons are not very effective against aircraft as they only have a standard HE shell with no special fuze, requiring a direct hit on an aircraft to deal damage. They serve better as anti-torpedo boat guns due to their rapid-fire ability and centralized arrangement. The DShK machine guns will be mostly for harassment purposes and to catch unaware planes.

=== Additional armament ===
{{Specs-Fleet-Additional}}

{{main|53-39 (533 mm)}}

Kirov is equipped with 2 x triple torpedo launchers firing the 53-39 torpedo. The base setting for these are a range of 4,000 meters with a high speed of 51 knots. Using the torpedo mode upgrade, they can be adjusted to 10,000 meters range at a reduced speed of 34 knots. Due to the location of the launchers being low and behind raised structure, the ship is not able to launch torpedoes towards the front, and must turn to release weapons.

== Usage in battles ==

The main cannons of the vehicle are good and should be used as its main weaponry in comparison with other ships that have good secondary armament. The best tactic would consist on staying behind cover to prevent being killed by torpedoes and paying attention to planes flying nearby because of the lack of good AA. The main armament has an excellent rate of fire, so it is possible to run out of ammo.

=== Pros and cons ===

The main cannons of the vehicle are good and should be used as its main weaponry in comparison with other ships that have good secondary armament. The best tactic would consist on staying behind cover to prevent being killed by torpedoes and paying attention to planes flying nearby because of the lack of good AA. The main armament has an excellent rate of fire, so it is possible to run out of ammo.

'''Pros:'''

* Much more fire rate in comparison with 203 cannons while having better shells.
* Better AA than the Kirov.

*

'''Cons:'''

* Lacks armor in comparison with other 5.7 ships and the Maxim Gorky.
* Only obtainable from Battle Pass 3, and it's not a premium.
* Although it has better AA than the Kirov and Maxim Gorky, its AA it's still bad in comparison with other 5.7 ships
* The wiki from this is a copy from the Kirov ship

== Usage in battles ==
The main cannons of the vehicle are good and should be used as its main weaponry in comparison with other ships that has as good secondary armament. The best tactic would consist on staying behind a piece of land to prevent being killed by torpedoes and paying attention to planes flying nearby because of the lack of good AA. The main armament has excellent fire speed, so it can be probable to run out of ammo, or pay a lot of money to repurchase it.

'''Pros:'''

* It has high reload speed for the main cannons.
* Although it has the same ammo as the Krasny Kavkaz, the HE filler is high in comparison with other shells of similar caliber.
* Better armor than the Kirov that is the ship it was based on

*

'''Cons:'''

* The anti-air is really inadequate consisting on 45mm manual reloaded cannons with no time or proximity fuse, some DShKs and some 100mm cannons that can use proximity fuse.
* It has really high repair cost, being around 10k silver lions

== History ==


The Tashkent, also known as the "Blue Cruiser", was designed with the help of Italians to succeed over the failings of the preceding Leningrad-class destroyers. Consequently, the Tashkent-class destroyer became one of the most powerful destroyers in the world, fighting with the Black Sea Fleet and was sunk in Sevastopol in 1942. Guns from the destroyer were used on the succeeding [[Pr. 30 Ognevoy|Ognevoy]] destroyer after the Tashkent was salvaged.
