[[File:Shimakazefastest.png|thumb|right|By equipping a Turbine and a Boiler it's possible to make fast destroyers like Shimakaze go speeds far beyond fast. As shown here, using a [[Improved Kanhon Type Turbine]] and a [[New Model High Temperature High Pressure Boiler]] will result in Shimakaze going to '''Fastest''']]

Speed {{Speed}} represents the speed of a ship. Ship are either '''slow (低速)''' or '''fast (高速)''' by default. Ship speed can be further increased to '''fast+ (高速+)''' or '''fastest (最速)''' by using {{Turbine}} [[Engine Improvement]]s, usually a combination of a {{EquipmentLink|Improved Kanhon Type Turbine|text=Turbine}} with one or more {{EquipmentLink|Enhanced Kanhon Type Boiler|New Model High Temperature High Pressure Boiler|text=Boilers}}.

** Devs claim ([https://twitter.com/KanColle_STAFF/status/818739607776804866]) that higher speed values increase evasion, however, no such bonus has ever been measured ([https://twitter.com/Xe_UCH/status/819164409025032195][http://ja.kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/%E3%82%B9%E3%83%AC%E3%83%83%E3%83%89:676]).

* Because [[Coastal Defense Ships]] (DE) cannot equip {{Engine}} [[Engine Improvement]]s, they are the only ship type that '''cannot be speed-up'''. The only exception is [[Inagi Kai Ni]].
