[[file:NewGuide_CA_Designations.png |thumb|right|When a specific ship subtype, such as a CA or CAV is being referred to, the designation is given '''sans''' brackets i.e. CA or CAV respectively; when either a CA or a CAV is allowed, a fleet composition will have the designation CA(V)]]

It is common for new players to neglect levelling Heavy ('''CAs''') and Aviation ('''CAVs''') Cruisers, once they have acquired more powerful classes, such as the battleships. However, CA(V)s play an important role between the light (DD/CLs) and heavy ships.

As the second-best night battlers after CLTs and a critical component of escort fleets (and by extension, responsible for killing bosses), CA(V)s are amongst the most important ships in the game. Knowing their strengths and weaknesses and training a strong cruiser force is therefore one of your top priorities.

=====Takao-Class=====
'''Takao 高雄''' & '''Atago 愛宕'''
The next two Takao sisters will be reviewed separately, simply because they have vastly differing roles in a fleet, Maya is an overall strong K2 with a specialization in anti-air, while Choukai is the single-best night attacker in the game apart from the CLTs.
'''Maya 摩耶 Kai Ni - Level 75'''
Maya once had the distinction of possessing the highest second remodel level of all cruisers at 75. She's since been overtaken by both Suzuya and Zara (level 88). However, in terms of importance to her fleet
'''Choukai Kai Ni 鳥海 - Level 65, <span style=" color:blue">Blueprint Required</span>'''
Barring the CLTs, Choukai is the single-best night attacker in the game when it comes to surface combat. Her one drawback
