You can't talk about how the type 3 shell fared in battle without bringing up the last battle of our youngest sister Kirishima, the Naval Battle of Guadacanal, dess...So this type 3 shell hits aircraft by bursting in mid-air, scattering incendiary fragments over a wide angle, dess.By the way, Kirishima had type 3 shells loaded because her original mission was to bombard Henderson Field.The type 3 shell made for an effective surface bombardment weapon because it scattered incendiary fragments over a wide area, dess.The incendiary explosives in the type 3 shells set the enemy ship ablaze!!! But the type 3 had little penetrating power, so the battleship escaped.Or so I've heard, but just what kind of mechanism can make a shell work against aircraft?Hiei is a bad girl, dess!"mmmlolololololo u gotta equip type 3 shell for AA lololololo"
Japanese snowclone, and apparently common advice during Fall 2013.About the Type 3 Shell
Based on publication date, this strip is likely a reference to the debut of mass Type 3 Shell use during E-4 of the Fall 2013 event against Airfield Princess.OH... how could you not know how the Kongou class's old buddy works!?u missed lolBoomBoomBoomDetonation!Kirishima, who was carrying type 3 shells at the time, kept some loaded when she dueled with an enemy battleship, dess...
The USS South Dakota. It would have taken Kirishima too long to reload AP or HE shells.I can fight, even with just type 3! Eat this!!Hot!Hot!Like thisOnee-sama, are you sneaking in some marketing!?It's just unreasonable to fire a normal shell at a plane and expect it to hit.Incidentally, the manga included with "KanColle Models" sold by F-toys includes a story of Haruna and I succeeding with the type 3 shell (and type 0 HE)!
These manga extras were drawn by Freddy. The story is likely the bombardment of Henderson Field by Kongou and Haruna after the Battle of Cape Esperance and prior to the Battle for Henderson Field on land.
