The trade-off for this flexibility is the longest torpedo reload of all Tier VI destroyers and some of the worst torpedo firing angles of any destroyer in the game the farthest forward that Gallant can rotate her torpedo launchers is nearly 60 degrees off the bow, for example. This greatly increases her tactical flexibility, allowing her to spread her torpedo salvos around in a variety of different directions and angles and wreak havoc on enemy formations. What makes Gallant unique is that she retains the ability of British cruisers to launch her torpedoes singly.

She carries them in a pair of quadruple-tube, centerline-mounted launchers - just like American counterpart Farragut - with a speed and range similar to the fish found deployed aboard Shinonome and Ernst Gaede. Gallant’s torpedoes are identical to those deployed aboard Tier VI British cruiser Leander and pack a nasty punch for the tier, topping out at over 15,000 alpha damage. Gallant is something of a mix of existing destroyer styles, packing torpedoes that will remind players of those found on Japanese destroyers married with main battery guns that are analogous to those of the American destroyer line. HMS Gallant marks the second entry of Royal Navy destroyers into World of Warships.
