CT's, when placed in PVP can increase exp gain by up to 20%. They are also 4 slot ships, which means they can be utilised for OASW purposes. This allows you to sortie CT's instead of shiplocking stronger CL's such as Abukuma, and CT's in combination with Isuzu can make a very powerful OASW fleet. My Kashima is lvl 130, with an ASW stat of 85. That means you can sortie her with a night DA setup + T3/T4 sonar + T3 depth charge/T2 depth charge, allowing her to provide OASW whilst still having some viable dmg against other ships (however note she lacks the ability to artillery spot).
