* MoreDakka: As a line of light cruisers, progressing up the tiers leads to ever increasing HE DPM values and reduced artillery reload speeds. Built for their artillery, ships like Sejong and Jinan can be very competent smoke-farmers and DD-hunters, held back only by their fragility and unreliability at long range (enter the torp-soup).

Tier IX Pan-Asian Destroyer

to:

Tier IX Pan-Asian DestroyerDestroyer. ''Fletcher''-class destroyers were the most numerous series of destroyers ever built, and are regarded as one of the most successful WWII destroyer designs. In 1963-1968 three ''Fletcher''s were sold to South Korea, where one of them served until 1989. Specifically ''Chung Mu'' used to be USS ''Erben'' (DD-631).



Tier X Pan-Asian Destroyer

Tier X Pan-Asian Destroyer
Destroyer. American ''Allen M. Sumner''-class destroyers were a developement of ''Fletcher''-class, trading five single gun mounts for three dual ones. In 1969-1974 eight ''Allen M. Sumner''s were sold to the Republic of China, where some of them served until 2000. Specifically ''Yueyang'' used to be USS ''Haynsworth'' (DD-700).

Being acquisitions from several other navies, Pan-Asian ships are wildly different in gameplay from each other. There is one constant, however - their unique deep-water torpedoes, that run too deep to hit destroyers, but are far more lethal to heavier ships, than most other torpedoes. These torpedoes are also very stealthy, meaning that the enemy won't spot them until it's too late. High-tier destroyers can also mount Surveillance Radar instead of Smoke Generator. Aside from [=PRC=] and [=ROC=], the tech tree includes Thai, Indonesian, Malaysian and South Korean warships.

Warships belonging to the [[UsefulNotes/ChineseWithChopperSupport People's Liberation Army Navy]] ([=PLAN=]), [[UsefulNotes/TheOtherChineseArmy Republic of China Navy]] ([=ROCN=]) and several other Asian nations in [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarships World of Warships]].

The Pan-Asian navy is introduced with the ''Anshan'' (an Ex-Soviet ''Gnevny''-class Destroyer). Actual Pan-Asian tech tree was released in November 2017. Cruiser line was released in January 2022.

Due to the difficult [[WorldWarII/WarInAsiaAndThePacific political]] [[UsefulNotes/SecondSinoJapaneseWar situation]] in south-eastern Asia in the first half of the 20th century, building warships was the last thing they cared about. As such, all the ships in the Pan-Asian Navy were purchased from other countries or taken as reparations from Japan. Aside from [=PRC=] and [=ROC=], the tech tree includes Thai, Indonesian, Malaysian and South Korean warships.

Both Pan-Asian lines of ships rely heavily on their unique torpedoes, that run too deeply in the water to hit destroyers. While useless against destroyers, these torpedoes are very stealthy, making them harder to spot without active sonar, and can be useful for hitting the more valuable cruiser or battleship that is behind the targeted destroyer. They also allow you to shoot torpedoes through a blocking allied destroyer without hitting them.

to:

* GlassCannon: They have Torpedo Reload, but has less HP than some same-Tier ''destroyers''!
* SmokeOut: The entire line gets Smoke Generator, to hide their fragile hulls.
!Changan
Tier I Pan-Asian Cruiser. A small ''kaibōkan'' (escort ship) built in Japan during WWII, and later given to ROC as reparations.

[[folder:Pan-Asia Destroyers]]
Pan-Asia Destroyers are characterized mostly by being ships purchased from other navies. With the sole exception of Japan, Asian nations weren't known for strong naval forces during the twentieth century. They largely preferred second hand destroyers and other small boats for their versatility and economical nature.
* AndNowForSomethingCompletelyDifferent: An entire line of ships operated by different navies purchased second hand from wildly different navies. Moving from one tier to next can be a little jarring.

!Longjiang
Tier II Pan-Asian Destroyer
!Phra Ruang
Tier III Pan-Asian Destroyer. Formerly ''HMS Radiant'', a Thornycroft ''R-class'' destroyer which fought in the First World War as part of the Royal Navy. She was later sold back to Thornycroft on 21 June 1920, who then sold her on to the Royal Thai Navy in September 1920 where she was renamed ''Phra Ruang''. Because of her continued service in the Thai Navy, the destroyer was the last of the R class destroyers to survive, being stricken from the Thai Navy list in 1957. It is reported that she remained in use as a training hulk and as of 2000 was still afloat, but has since been moved ashore and encased in concrete at a shrine to ''Admiral Prince Abhakara Kiartivongse''.
* GlassCannon: Phra Ruang is a sneaky little bugger with low detect-ability range, good torpedo reload time and best speed out of all Tier 3 destroyers... at the expense of non-existent armor, low cannon shell velocity and painfully slow torpedo speed.
* FragileSpeedster
!Shenyang
Tier IV Pan-Asian Destroyer
!Jianwei
Tier V Pan-Asian Destroyer
!Fushun
Tier VI Pan-Asian Destroyer
!Gadjah Mada
Tier VII Pan-Asian Destroyer
* MasterOfAll: Stealthy? Check. Good guns? Double check. Good torpedoes? Check. Her only real weakness is that her torpedoes cannot hit other destroyers.[[note]]And that her launchers also have horrendous firing arcs but the previous issue makes this mostly irrelevant.[[/note]]
!Hsienyang
Tier VIII Pan-Asian Destroyer
* EnemyDetectingRadar: She, Chung Mu, and Yueyang, in lieu of ''Defensive Fire'', have the option to trade their smokescreen for ''Surveillance Radar'', something no destroyer on the USN tech tree can do, with the exception of the premium Tier 9 destroyer USS ''Black'', which not only gets Radar in its own slot instead having to compromise, but also retains the option of trading ''Engine Boost'' for ''Defensive Fire''.
!Chung Mu
Tier IX Pan-Asian Destroyer
!Yueyang
Tier X Pan-Asian Destroyer
* StealthExpert: boasts the lowest detection radius of all the tier X destroyers.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Pan-Asian Cruisers]]
Second line of Pan-Asian navy, scheducheled to be released in early 2022. Like Destroyer line, this line is composed entirely of foreign ships.
* AlternateHistory: Only one ship in the line was ever given to any Asian navy. Other two cruisers were built, but their transference to Asian nations is pure fiction. The rest of the line was never even built by their original designers, let alone given to anyone.

!Chungking
Tier V Pan-Asian Cruiser. She used to be HMS ''Aurora'', an Arethusa-class cruiser, before being sold to [=ROC=].
!Rahmat
Tier VI Pan-Asian Cruiser. She is a British Dido-class cruiser, which in World of Warships' AlternateHistory was sold to Indonesia.
!Chumphon
Tier VII Pan-Asian Cruiser. She is a American Atlanta-class cruiser, which in World of Warships' AlternateHistory was sold to Thailand.
* ReusedCharacterDesign: She's basically Atlanta under a different flag.
!Harbin
Tier VIII Pan-Asian Cruiser. She is a Soviet project [=MK-6=], which in World of Warships' AlternateHistory was actually built and sold to [=PRC=].
!Sejong
Tier IX Pan-Asian Cruiser. She is an American project, which in World of Warships' AlternateHistory was actually built and sold to South Korea.
!Jinan
Tier X Pan-Asian Cruiser. She is an American project, which in World of Warships' AlternateHistory was actually built and sold to [=ROC=].
* ReusedCharacterDesign: She's basically Austin (known [=IRL=] as [=CL-154=]) under a different flag.

[[folder:Pan-Asian Premium Ships]]
!Anshan
Former Soviet Gnevny-class destroyer Rekordny, and the first destroyer to serve in the PLAN. Currently preserved as a museum ship in Qingdao.
* OvershadowedByAwesome: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. Often compared unfavorably to the Gremyaschy a tier lower, Anshan is nevertheless still superior to the Gnevny that sits at the same tier.
!Lo Yang
* AntiAir: She is the only American destroyer listed under the Pan-Asian umbrella that gets the option of using the ''Defensive Fire'' consumable instead of ''Engine Booost''. None of the three American destroyers on the Pan-Asian tech tree have access to it.
* EnemyDetectingRadar: She was the first destroyer introduced into the game that can mount the Hydroacoustic Search consumable, and remains the only non-German and non-British destroyer (These two nations received destroyer tech trees years after ''Lo Yang'' was added) to have it. Unlike the German destroyers, however, the stats for Lo Yang's hydro match the superior stats for the same consumable on the ''Admiral Hipper'' and ''Prinz Eugen''. Only the Tier 10 German destroyer Z-52 has better hydro range than Lo Yang.

!Huanghe
Pan-Asian Tier 6 cruiser, and the first premium cruiser added to the Pan-Asian line-up.
!Irian
Pan-Asian Tier 8 cruiser, of the Sverdlov-class.
formerly Sverdlov-class cruiser Ordzhonikidze, the Indonesian Navy bought her from the Soviets in 1962 and recommissioned her KRI Irian in 1963. Most famously, British frogman Lionel Crabb suddenly disappeared when secretly inspecting the ship while it was docked in Portsmouth Harbor.
* MechanicallyUnusualFighter: She places a great deal more emphasis on her torpedo armaments than other cruisers, arguably even the Japanese. She can launch a broadside of five pre-nerf Yueyang torps and has a torpedo reload booster.
