Most ships that carry Y guns also have stern roll offs, just charges that roll off the back or drop off the sides, some also care double roll offs. So it you ever go up against a Matsu DD, it has 2 Y guns, 4 K guns and double roll offs, meaning you're in for a heck of a time. The Type AB has 6 Y guns and one stern roll off, so it can throw 12 charges to the sides with just the Y guns, add the roll off, about 16, a very hard pattern to escape.

However, both of these are in mods...

Oh tnx a lot. Indeed it is a very hard pattern to escape. Luckily i never encoutered them ehehheh
