Hamburg Dockyard: Construction of ZF-6

In Update 0.10.3, you’ll be able to start building a new German destroyer, ZF-6.

IX ZF-6 is one of the unfinished Le Hardi-class French destroyers that were captured by Germany when France capitulated in 1940. The project that was conceived to finish building the ship involved her complete rearmament with German-manufactured weapons. She has decent concealment; AP shells that can inflict significant damage and have enhanced ricochet angles; and the Engine Boost, Smoke Generator, and Defensive AA Fire consumables. When countering destroyers, the ship can take advantage of the Main Battery Reload Booster consumable. When it comes to heavily armored targets, her fast torpedoes that can inflict heavy damage and have a decent reload time may come in very handy, despite their quite high detectability.

    If you complete the construction of IX ZF-6 by spending Doubloons, make sure to keep completing Dockyard combat missions—each phase will bring you 3,000 Coal and 200 Steel.

The process of creating IX ZF-6's design drawings is the main new feature of the Dockyard in comparison with its previous iterations. The drawing process occupies the first four phases. Once you have progressed through them, the ship's construction begins.
