Beyond her main battery, Benson is the first American destroyer whose stock torpedo armament range exceeds her detection radius. She can work in close, then cut opposing destroyers down very quickly with her high rate of fire.
When built for maximum stealth, her detection radius of 5.8 km combined with 18 rounds per minute from each of the five guns in her main battery make her a terror to enemy destroyers. When their newfound stealth is combined with a potent torpedo armament and fast-firing main battery guns, Benson, Fletcher, and Gearing become true jack-of-all-trades ships with an incredibly high ceiling in the hands of a skilled captain.įor Benson, it all starts with her main battery. The key to this transformation is access to Upgrade Slot 5 and Concealment System Modification 1, allowing Benson and subsequent American destroyers to have concealment values that rival that of those found in the Japanese destroyer line.
Tier VIII's Benson is where the American destroyer line finally comes together with the complete package that makes them the most flexible destroyers in the game. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.įor a graphic summary of ships Tiers VIII thru XI see LittleWhiteMouse's "Actual AA DPS".
