Introduction

新開発の長8cm高角砲です。
秋月型に装備された長10cm高角砲の小型軽量化を目指した対空用副砲バージョンです。
微妙な出来という評価もありますが、後期の建造艦艇への装備が期待されていました。

This is the new long 8 cm high-angle gun.
It is a miniaturized and lightened anti-air secondary gun version of the Akizuki-class's long 10 cm high angle gun.
While it is evaluated to be of little improvement, it was anticipated by the warships built later into the war.

Mechanics

Secondary GunsSecSp_Sec serve a similar role to Main Guns. Their main stats are the "firepower" and "accuracy" . They are notably required to trigger some weaker Artillery Spotting attacks as well as some Night Cut-Ins, notably the "Double Attack" (DA).

• They do not have any "Hidden Penalties" on any ships.
• They bring an accuracy bonus against PT boats.

High-Angle Guns (sometimes "dual-purpose guns"), are anti-air focused guns, that can serve their main surface role, in addition to having extra AA stats.

• They are notably required in most AACI.

Can be equipped in the RE of certain ships.
