Turbine is a Tier III Italian SAP destroyer: her main guns fire high-alpha semi-armor-piercing shells instead of AP, so one good salvo lands a big guaranteed hit on broadsides and superstructures. Lean on agility to pick targets your SAP bites rather than shatters on; the torpedoes are slow and secondary. Exhaust smoke and engine boost cover the approach. AA (63 AA DPS at 2 km) is heavy enough to make her the team's air-defense anchor on top of the lead role; CV strikes route around her, not through. Standout traits: best torpedo range in T3 DDs (8 km) and best engine power in T3 DDs (40,000 HP).
Fight at mid-cap range where you can angle in for a SAP salvo and slip back behind exhaust smoke. Pick broadsides, soft destroyers, and exposed superstructures where SAP lands full damage; do not trade SAP into the bow armor of an angled cruiser, and use the agility, not concealment, to survive.
SAP shatters on the belt armor AP would pen, so salvos into an angled cruiser are wasted; hunt the broadsides, soft destroyers, and superstructures it bites cleanly, and remember the torpedoes are slow backup, not your primary damage.
+25% speed, 15 s duration. Engine Boost consumable temporarily raises top speed. Mobility on demand to reposition, chase a kill, or break contact.
8.01 km torpedo range, best of T3 DDs.
63.0 AA DPS, best of T3 DDs (median 20.0).
75.0 s torpedo reload, worst of T3 DDs. Long wait between drops.
2.9 s rudder shift, bottom decile of T3 DDs. Hard to dodge incoming AP; lean on island cover.
Turbine is available in the Destroyer Hunters branch of the Italy Tech Tree for 85,000 credits after researching it in the branch. Known module upgrades cost up to 21,240 credits. Official source cards below may also show its temporary Early Access window before it became a normal Tech Tree unlock.
Turbine sits in the Destroyer Hunters branch. The highlighted path shows the local branch context inside the full Italy tree.

Overmatched by 95+ guns across the bracket. Can’t reliably bow-tank; gets bow-citadelled and overpenned.
Superstructure and extremities take HE pens and AP overpens from nearly any gun: steady chip damage. Fire resistance 10%, fires burn 30s. Range-by-range in the ballistics tool →
| Section | Plates | HP cap | Threats | Tactic |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bow | 10 mm | 1,700 (16% of HP) | Overmatched by 150mm+ (Java, Taranto)Angle bounces 127mm10 mm: HE pens from 127mm+ | Bow-tank fits behind this exterior plate. Saturation is FAST here; the cap is often only a few thousand HP. |
| Stern | 10 mm | 1,100 (10% of HP) | Overmatched by 150mm+ (Java, Taranto)Angle bounces 127mm10 mm: HE pens from 127mm+ | Mirror of bow. Same fast saturation. |
| Citadel | 10 mm | ≈ 165,500 (effectively no cap) | Citadel pen: full damageOver-pen: ×0.10 damage | Effectively no cap; citadel pool sits at ~165k HP on every ship. An AP citadel penetration deals the shell's full damage, the biggest single hit available; only over-penetrations are damped, to ×0.10. |
| Superstructure | 10 mm | 500 (5% of HP) | Any HE ≥16 mm pens at full damage | Any HE ≥16 mm pens at full damage. HE-spam target, and the section saturates fast (often only a few thousand HP). |
| Turret (module, per magazine) | separate HP pool, does not drain ship HP | 5,500 magazine HP | Magazine detonation1–30% chance · below ~75% HP | Per-turret powder-magazine HP. Detonation chance scales from 1% (no mag damage) to 30% (full mag damage); this range is the in-game value. Detonation can't roll while the ship is above ~75% HP (the standard detonation-protection threshold, not a per-ship stat). Smaller magazines saturate to the 30% ceiling faster. |
| AA mount (40 mm mount) | separate HP pool, does not drain ship HP | 200 per-mount HP | Destroyed at 0 HP | Per-mount HP for the heaviest AA on this ship. An AA mount destroyed at 0 HP stops shooting down planes for the rest of the battle; DCP does not repair destroyed mounts. HE shells specifically target AA mounts since the small-caliber HP pool falls fast. |
| Rudder (module) | separate HP pool, does not drain ship HP | 3,300 module HP | Incapacitated at 0 HP | When module HP reaches 0 the rudder locks at its current angle until DCP repairs it. Repair via Damage Control Party. |
Saturation cap = HP a section can absorb before further damage to it is reduced (the "bow-tank" effect). Citadel pool is ~165k on every ship (effectively no cap); damage is gated by pen/over-pen multipliers instead. Superstructure saturates fast but HE always pens regardless of the plate thickness. Rudder (and other module HPs) are a separate pool from ship HP: damaging a module doesn't drain ship HP. Incapacitated modules like the rudder and engine are restored by DCP, but secondary and AA mounts destroyed at 0 HP stay out for the rest of the battle.
