About Datong

Datong is a Tier VIII Pan-Asia Destroyer (Tech tree ship) in World of Warships (WoWS). This page provides full Datong stats including 3D armor model, main battery dispersion and AP penetration curves, available modules and upgrades, and recommended captain skills and builds for WoWS players.

A hypothetical destroyer design with experimental 100 mm dual-purpose guns as the main battery. Quadruple-gun 100 mm BL-127 mounts were under development in the U.S.S.R. in the late 1940s. One of the Project 30-bis destroyers under construction at that time could have served as a testbed for the prospective guns. Later, in the second half of the 1950s, the ship could have been transferred to the PRC.
