With her floaty shells, hitting longer range or agile targets can be a challenge. While Jinan has AP shells with a shorter than normal fuse time for a cruiser, the low penetration leaves it ineffective at anything but point blank range. Although her fire chance per shell is low for Tier X – only 9% – with ten shells per salvo and a fast reload she can still set fires consistently. In those cases, she relies on superstructure hits and setting fires. Her turret traverse and reload are among the fastest of any cruiser, but her small caliber limits the damage she can do to battleships and heavily armored cruisers. While Austin’s HE shells have similar stats, Jinan's lose speed quicker and have a longer flight time and higher shell arc. Her HE and AP shells are identical to Sejong’s a tier lower. Jinan is armed with ten 127mm guns in five twin turrets, with similar characteristics to those found on Austin and IX Sejong. Combining a fast-firing main battery and four heavy-hitting quintuple deepwater torpedo launchers with flexible Pan Asian smokescreens and Torpedo Reload Booster, Jinan can stall capital ship pushes and quickly deal with destroyers that get too close. A variant of the American CL-154 project, Jinan shares many similarities with her American cousin X Austin and other destroyer-caliber cruisers like VII Atlanta and Flint. Topping off the Pan Asian cruiser line, Jinan stands as the pinnacle of the HE and torpedo spam play style developed over the preceding cruisers.
