The objective of the Transport Operation is to deplete a '''Transport (TP)''' gauge/bar.

 

* The amount of TP that needs to be depleted varies by difficulty and map.

The TP Gauge is depleted each time the fleet reaches a '''"Transport Loadout Node"''' (a node marked with a green flag) and then scores an '''A+ rank''' at the boss, with S ranks depleting more points than A ranks.

* The objective of the Transport Operation is to deplete a '''Transport (TP)''' gauge.

* Ships that are {{color|red|'''heavily damaged (大破)'''}}, [[Evacuation|evacuated]], or sunk, are not counted towards gauge depletion.

** The amount of TP that needs to be depleted varies by difficulty.

The boss does not need to be sunk at any point.

* The TP Gauge is depleted everytime the fleet reaches a '''Transport Drop Off''' point (a node marked with a green flag) then scores at least an '''A rank''' victory at the boss.

* Sinking it may be advisable to get S ranks and so deplete the gauge faster.

** Ship girls that are <span style="color:red;">'''heavily damaged (大破)'''</span>, evacuated using the [[Fleet Command Facility]] or sunk are not counted towards gauge depletion.

* In the eventuality there is no boss node after the TP node, then just reaching the node is enough, counting as an S rank all the time.

* You do not need to sink the boss on the final run to clear the gauge.

Those phases are usually completed by a single fleet or a "[[Combined_Fleet#Combined Fleet Types|Transport Escort Force]]" (TCF).

* These maps are usually completed by a single fleet or a [[Combined_Fleet#Transport_Escort_Force|Transport Escort Force]].

* Stacking only TP equipment can compromise the ability to score an A+ rank and result in no depletion at all. On the other hand, focusing too much on offensive capability may result in minimal gauge depletion even on an S rank.

**It is ideal to find a balance ranking A+ rank the boss while taking as much TP equipment as possible.

* When using a Transport Escort Fleet, the escort fleet should be where the combat-focused ship girls are assigned, since the escort may also attack at night.

* Although Landing Crafts deplete the most TP, careful consideration should go into whether using DLC-capable ships is appropriate. [[Ship Locking|Locking]] key ship when [[Anti-Installation]] is required in subsequent maps can result in disaster.
