* C2 has stated that proficiency will increase provide a bonus to LoS and contact rate.

** The increase is either bugged or too small to be observed.

* It does appear to increase the night contact rate of the [[Type 98 Recon Seaplane (Night Scout)]].

=Ranking Planes=
Line 209: Line 269:     
Land-based planes can only be ranked through [[LBAS]]. This makes ranking them quite expensive. Outside of events, only [[World_6#6-4|6-4]] and [[World_6#6-5|6-5]] have LBAS available to use. Of these, '''6-5 is the best place''' because it allows the use of two land bases and has a Range 1 submarine node at B. This allows any land-based plane to be rank and only requires a fleet of at least 1 light cruiser and a mix of destroyers and destroyer escorts.

===Important Notes on Ranking Planes===
 +
 +
* Numbered air group planes like the [[Ryuusei (601 Air Group)]] start at <span style="color:blue; text-shadow: 0 0 5px blue;">|</span>.
 +
* Named squadron planes like the [[Type 97 Torpedo Bomber (Murata Squadron)]] start at <span style="color:blue; text-shadow: 0 0 5px blue;">||</span>.
 +
* Remodeling planes to better versions through quests will retain their ranks if it is higher than the default rank.
 +
** Exceptions are for remodels that require the plane to be at maxed proficiency like for the [[Zero Fighter Type 53 (Iwamoto Squadron)]].
 +
** Remodelling a plane using [[Akashi's Improvement Arsenal]] will only retain 60% of the plane's proficiency.
 +
* Ranks can decrease by 1-2 if a large number of planes are shot down.
 +
* Ranks will be reset if the entire squadron is shot down.
 +
** Even elite squadrons with default ranks can lose all their ranks.
 +
* Rank loss is calculated before rank gain, therefore it is possible for a squadron that was wiped to retain 1-2 ranks if it did well.
 +
* Rank is only calculated once the fleet returns to port.
 +
** It is possible to save ranks by quitting the sortie before the results screen is shown. This can be useful during events to save preparation time for boss kills.
 +
* Planes will not gain or lose ranks in [[Support Expedition]]s or [[Exercise]]s.
 +
* Planes '''must''' parcitipate in aerial combat to gain/lose ranks. This means planes in 0 slots will not gain or lose ranks.
