Each type of combined fleet has different composition requirements. In some cases, you will be given the option to choose between which combined fleet you want to make. In other cases, you will be told which fleet to create for the sortie. When choosing between the two different types of combined fleets, besides fleet composition requirements, take note that the combat order is different for each type (see [[Combined Fleet#Combat_Phases|Combat Phases]]).
