-The '''HMS Vega (L41)''' is a member of the V-class destroyer family. As part of the 9th Order of the 1916–1917 Naval Program, the HMS Vega was ordered on June 30, 1916. William Doxford & Sons laid her down in Sunderland, England, on December 11, 1916, and she was launched on September 1, 1917. On December 14, 1917, she was commissioned into service after being completed on December 12, 1917. The HMS Vega saw action in the final year of World War I, serving with the Grand Fleet or Harwich Force. In 1918, the ship sustained damage while in fleet service. The HMS Vega later served with the Atlantic Fleet's 6th Destroyer Flotilla in 1921. After that, she was put into reserve and given to the Reserve Fleet. The HMS Vega was chosen to be converted into an anti-aircraft escort destroyer as part of the 1939 Rearmament Programme after World War II began. She arrived at Chatham Dockyard in May 1939 to start the conversion process. When she re-entered service in 1939, her pennant number changed to L41. The HMS Vega resumed her role in the North Sea convoy in July 1940. This ended on November 11, 1940, when she was severely damaged after running into a naval mine off Sunk Head, Harwich, England. She took part in the remainder of the war after the repairs were finished in late 1942. The HMS Vega was decommissioned and put into reserve again on August 15, 1945, the day that the armistice with Japan ended World War II. She was sold by Clayton and Davies at Dunston on Tyne on March 4, 1947, to BISCO for scrapping. On March 26, 1947, she arrived at the shipbreaker's yard.

 Introduced in [[Update "Direct Hit"]], the HMS Vega is a unique destroyer for beginners; it has no torpedo armament and is entirely devoted to gunnery. The HMS Vega is vulnerable in close-quarters combat given that other vessels equipped with torpedoes could quickly destroy it, or out-turn it as the ship's turrets rotate very slowly. Therefore, it is more advisable to favour mid-range encounters, where the HMS Vega's exceptional gunnery and great manoeuvrability can be utilized to their fullest.

 Two twin 4"/45 Mark XVI turrets provide the primary armament of the Vega, and they are powerful compared to other destroyers at a similar BR range. The rate of fire on these turrets is unparalleled among the starter destroyers of any nation, with 20 rounds per minute nearly doubling the other nation's rates of fire. The ammunition fired is also competitive among the starter destroyers, with the 4" shells of the Vega being more powerful than both the American and Soviet 4" shells. The German 12.7 cm, the Japanese 120 mm, and the Italian 120 mm are more destructive shell-for-shell than the smaller 4"/45 Mark XVI, but the Vega still maintains the significant rate of fire advantage over those guns.
-Also notable is the very good front firing angles of the guns. Both turrets are fully traversable around 360°, and the rear turret has no obstructions near it, so it only has a very small blind area at the very front of the ship. Even a slight angling of the Vega will allow 100% of the ship's main armament to be brought upon a target. In addition to this, the turrets have a very good maximum elevation of 80°, allowing for potential combating of air targets. However, the turrets on the Vega do suffer from some significant weaknesses; the rotation speed is painfully slow, even with the appropriate Primary Armament Targeting modification researched. Moreover, the guns are elevated so close range combat with costal vessels can potentially be impaired by a lack of gun depression. These issues are particularly impactful at the BR of the Vega due to the prevalence of fast and nimble vessels.

 The twin 4"/45 Mark XVI turrets on the Vega have access to HE, SAP, HE-TF, and HE-VT shells. The HE shells can be used to target coastal vessels and destroyers to an extent, but internal damage and turret damage is limited by a relatively small explosive mass of 1.55 kg of TNT. More recommendable in destroyer-to-destroyer combat is the SAP shell, capable of penetrating enemy armour and exploding internally to disable engines, detonate ammo racks, and more quickly reduce enemy crew counts. SAP, in conjunction with the high rate of fire, is competent against coastal vessels as well, although the hull-break provided by HE ammunition is more reliable. HE-TF and HE-VT are valid choices for combating air targets, with the high elevation of the guns, and HE-VT is more reliable than the HE-TF if given a choice between the two.

-The Vega lacks survivability, but not necessarily to a crippling degree. There is no additional armour beyond the structural steel used in the Vega, and any ammunition can penetrate the Vega. This is a vulnerability shared by all destroyers save for some American destroyers with minor anti-fragmentation hull armour. This flaw applies to all external components of the Vega as well, so primary weaponry and anti-aircraft mounts will be disabled frequently, even by machine gun fire. In addition to this, the size and crew count of the Vega is quite small, so the Vega will be destroyed quite easily.

-The Vega is a unique starter destroyer, completely focused on gunnery and lacking any torpedo armament. Close range combat is dangerous for the Vega, as other ships with torpedoes may easily dispatch the Vega, or fast enemies could outrun the very slow rotation rate of the Vega's turrets. It's therefore more recommendable to favor mid-range engagements, where the superb gunnery and great manoeuvrability of the Vega can shine. The high rate of fire and adequate explosive filler of the 4" guns will make targeting evasive coastal vessels and destroyer components much easier than any other destroyer at the Vega's battle rating.

 Attacking the enemy head-on might be a good idea, as you can fire both your guns at the target while turning only about ten degrees to a side. Rapidly switch sides to disrupt the enemy's aim, and keep firing with both cannons. Load the SAP shell and aim for their engines or ammunition racks. Never let torpedo boats get close. Your poor traverse will make aiming at them near impossible. Try opening fire at any you see from afar, fast reload rates will make that job easier. Taking sharp turns will tilt your ship, making aiming guns, which have nearly no depression, difficult.
