 The S-100 is armed with three 20 mm cannons. The single 2 cm/65 C/38 automatic cannon is located on the bow with a very limited forward firing angle. Due to the size of ship, the vertical guidance of only -5° makes it unable to fire in front of the ship unless the target is at considerable distance. The second gun is a dual mount 2 cm/65 Flakzwilling 38 automatic cannon located amidship with a 8 mm thick hardened armour plate protecting the crew from machine gun rounds and shrapnels. The gun can be fired effectively only when utilizing it broadside and leaving the vessel vulnerable to enemy fire. Like the bow mounted gun, it has a limited vertical guidance of only -5°, because of the railing around the ship.
 Three different ammunition belts are available:

-S-100 is armed with a single 3.7 cm FlaK located at the stern, it is protected by a gun shield made from 12 mm thick hardened armour plate. With addition of the ability to use both secondary and primary guns with a single trigger, this gun became the main source of damage against enemies due to being more powerful over distance when compared to 20 mm autocannons. Unfortunately it suffer from poor guidance caused by the railing around the ship like the 20 mm dual mounted cannon. Same tactics should be used as with the 20 mm.

 <!-- ''Describe the technique of using this ship, the characteristics of her use in a team and tips on strategy.

 The S-100 shares the same hull and playstyle as the S-38b. The key differences are the 3.7 cm auxiliary weapon and the limited AA firing angle. Although it's tempting to, turning broadside to use the centre-mounted dual cannons is ill-advised in most cases, as the hull is fragile. Using speed to deliver surprise attacks and flanking lone enemies is the way to go, but never attack a group when outnumbered. Captains may find the S-100 an effective destroyer hunter with this ship's high speed and effective torpedoes.

-Despite its size,the S-100 is a fast and manoeuvrable at most speeds, making it an easy ship to control and play. With a three engines powering the ship, the acceleration is very good, and with a bit of practice, the S-100 is able to accelerate even during turns. The ship itself does not bleed speed very much when performing hard turns.
