Boevoi is a Tier V Soviet gunboat destroyer: her damage comes from sustained main battery pressure on caps and open-water trades. Torpedoes are a secondary threat for closing lanes, not her main damage. Standout traits: best AA DPS in T5 DDs (155) and best Repair Party duration in T5 DDs (28 s).
Hold mid-cap distance and lean into gunboat trades from cover where the peer destroyer cannot match your fires-per-minute. Avoid open-water duels with ships running smoke or radar; your damage is mostly gunfire, and gunfire from cover wins more than from blue water. Your guns lose penetration at range, so aim AP at broadsides you can still citadel and put HE into superstructures and upper-hull sections, rather than the bow-in or belt armor your shells bounce and shatter on.
Your damage is sustained main-battery pressure from cover (the torpedoes are a secondary threat), so open-water duels just stack incoming HE on you while you fire back.
+8% speed, 120 s duration. Engine Boost consumable temporarily raises top speed. Mobility on demand to reposition, chase a kill, or break contact.
155.0 AA DPS, best of T5 DDs (median 94.0).
28.0 s Repair Party duration, best of T5 DDs. Restores HP for longer per activation.
10.0 s Damage Control duration, best of T5 DDs. Stays fire / flood immune longer per activation.
4.8 s rudder shift, worst of T5 DDs. Hard to dodge incoming AP; lean on island cover.
6.9 km surface detect, bottom decile of T5 DDs. Visible before you can react; position early.
Boevoi is available in the Generalist Destroyers branch of the U.S.S.R. Tech Tree for 2,400,000 credits after researching it in the branch. Known module upgrades cost up to 600,000 credits. Official source cards below may also show its temporary Early Access window before it became a normal Tech Tree unlock. Container chances are shown as the listed odds of receiving this exact ship, dividing grouped ship-pool odds across the resolved ships and including nested container paths when a crate can drop another crate.
Boevoi sits in the Generalist Destroyers branch. The highlighted path shows the local branch context inside the full U.S.S.R. tree.

Where Boevoi sits among Tier V DDs (25 ships). Notable standouts are shown first; the rest of the cohort-ranked stats are in the expand below. Acquisition variants (Black Friday, Founders Edition) are counted once with their base ship, not as separate peers.
Not standouts for Boevoi -- here's where she sits on every other ranked stat in the cohort. Stats tagged NORM are tied across more than half the cohort, so the value is the cohort default rather than a standout.

Horizontal dispersion ellipse width at max range, from the verified WoWS dispersion model: $\sigma_H = \left(\dfrac{R}{30}\cdot\dfrac{\text{idealRadius}-\text{minRadius}}{\text{idealDistance}} + \text{minRadius}\right)\cdot 30$ $= \left(\dfrac{9621}{30}\cdot\dfrac{8-0.5}{1000} + 0.5\right)\cdot 30 = 87.2\,\text{m}$Vertical dispersion ellipse height at max range: $\sigma_V = \sigma_H \cdot \text{radiusOnMax}$ $= 87.2 \cdot 0.6 = 52.3\,\text{m}$50%-hit horizontal radius: $\sigma_{H,50} = \sigma_H \cdot \text{GetHalfHitsRatio}(\sigma)$ $= 87.2 \cdot 0.32\;(\sigma = 2) = 27.9\,\text{m}$50%-hit vertical radius: $\sigma_{V,50} = \sigma_V \cdot \text{GetHalfHitsRatio}(\sigma)$ $= 52.3 \cdot 0.319\;(\sigma = 2) = 16.7\,\text{m}$Standard destroyer dispersion baseline.Canonical community AP formula (jcw780/wows_shell), evaluated at muzzle velocity: $P = 10^{-7}\cdot K \cdot m^{0.69} \cdot d^{-1.07} \cdot v_0^{1.38}$ $= 10^{-7}\cdot 1615 \cdot 33.5^{0.69} \cdot 0.13^{-1.07} \cdot 870^{1.38} = 184.1\,\text{mm}$. Matches the in-game spec card.Same formula at the ship's max firing range (13.2 km), where the shell has slowed to 371 m/s: $P = 10^{-7}\cdot 1615 \cdot 33.5^{0.69} \cdot 0.13^{-1.07} \cdot 371^{1.38} = 56.8\,\text{mm}$.22 mm ≈ 130 mm caliber / 6 (standard HE penetration ratio).floor(130 mm caliber / 14.3) = 9 mm (AP auto-penetrates plating this thick or less).AP shell over-penetration splash radius; scales with shell mass. Wickes 102mm = 3, standard 152mm CL ~ 20, Iowa 406mm ~ 270, Yamato 460mm = 400, Incomparable 650mm = 550 (max).
