With the new addition of british destroyers world of warships, HMS Icarus at tier 6 was one of nine I-class destroyers built for the Royal Navy during the 1930s. Part of the last series I-class of the standard destroyers of the British Navy.
As an I-class destroyer, Hms Icarus wows was one of the ships of the ultimate class of Interwar Standard destroyer begun by the A-class of Acasta and her ilk in the late 1920’s. The design progression of icarus world of warships is relatively minor.
Hms Icarus was commissioned in 1937. Icarus had brief service before Britain entered WWII in September 1939. When world war 2 broke out she was deployed to British waters and where on escort and patrol missions she contributed to sinking the U-35 and U-45. In early 1940 she was converted to the minelayer role and from March 1940 to April 1941 she participated in laying about 30 minefields while escorting many others in locations as far apart as Vestfjord, Norway and off Brest, France up to 60 mines at a time that could be up to 1,800 mines.
Resulting sinkings if any are unknown from Icarus destroyer but her sistership on one sortie is credited with sinking German destroyer Max Schultz.
British destroyer Icarus was one of the ships sailing to mine Norwegian waters when Germany invaded and was being covered by battlecruiser Renown, which fought a brief and inconclusive action with the German Scharnhorst and Gneisenau. While in Norway she captured or sank two German merchantmen and also participated in the Second Battle of Narvik as a minesweeping
escort for HMS Warspite, though she doesn’t seem to have been heavily engaged.
In May-June of 1940 the Icarus was one of the best performing destroyers during Operation Dynamo. In six trips she extracted 4,396 troops, equivalent to a Brigade of infantry and not bad for a ship with a complement of 145. In exchange she received minor damage. After re-converting to a destroyer role Icarus participated in the hunt for the Bismarck and was one of the destroyers left behind by the Hood and Prince of Wales before the Battle of the Denmark Strait. Through 1941 into 1942 she operated on convoy escort including some of the first Arctic Convoys to Russia. Icarus wows at tier 6 can also partake in the ingame mission Operation Dynamo.
After all the minelaying and action from Norway to Russia to France Icarus was diverted to take part in the critical Harpoon and Pedestal convoys to Malta, before returning to
Home Fleet escort work around Britain. In Mid-1943 in common with many of the Interwar Standard type destroyers she was converted to a dedicated convoy escort,
losing two of her guns in exchange for a Hedgehog anti-submarine mortar and other ASW equipment. From then until the end of the war she worked as a convoy escort and helped account for two more U-boats, U-744 and U-1199.hms icarus, hms icarus wows, icarus world of warships, icarus destroyer, british destroyers world of warships, british destroyer, how to play hms icarus, how to play icarus,how to play british destroyers, icarus wows, british destroyer wows, wows british destroyer line, british destroyer line, british destroyer line wows, world of warships british destroyer line, how to icarus, british tier 6 destroyer.
Icarus was a lucky ship. Of 11 I-class ships she was one of three survivors at wars’ end. She provided good service with contributions to 4 U-boat sinkings, saving 4,396 soldiers,
adding a significant portion of RN minelaying, many convoy escorts and earning 10 deserved Battle Honors. She was scrapped in 1946.
