- Notes
- '*' Abbreviations are derived rather than official
- Battleships & Fast Battleships share the hull classification, BB.
- Light Aircraft Carriers & Standard Aircraft Carriers are termed 正規空母, or Fleet Carriers, to distinguish them from Escort Carriers or other carrier types. This term sometimes refers only to Standard Aircraft Carriers.
- There are 265 kanmusu (sans remodels & class changes) as of the 10/12/2021 update.
- Exceptions
- Training Cruisers & Torpedo Cruisers do not count as a Light Cruiser for expeditions or most branching rules requirements.
- Similarly, Aviation Cruisers & Aviation Battleships do not count as a Heavy Cruiser & Battleship, respectively[0].
- Some ships like the Chitose-class and Taigei have remodels shifting they ship class.
Ship Stats
- Firepower , Torpedo , Anti Air , Armor , & Luck can be upgraded by Modernization.
- Firepower , Torpedo , Anti Air , Armor , Anti-Submarine , Line of Sight , & Evasion will improve from leveling up.
- Marrying a ship will increase her HP , Luck , & level cap. The increase in level cap allows the ship to have higher Anti-Submarine , Evasion , & Line of Sight .
