Is a "Light Aircraft Carrier" (CVL), despite being designated in the game as a:
- "Fleet Carrier" (航空母艦) at Kai Ni,
- "Night Operations Aircraft Carrier" (夜間作戦航空母艦) at Kai Ni E,
- This is reflected in her combat capabilities only.
Ryuuhou Kai Ni/E's ship class in-game is the Ryuuhou-class, but is displayed as "Renovated Kagerou-class" on her Library page.
Gameplay Notes
Submarine Tenders (AS) are very weak, mostly used for certain Routings
- They can perform a powerful but limited special attack with SS(V).
Light Carriers (CVL) are weaker CV, with usually more permissive Routings. They are capable of attacking submarines.
Escort Carriers (CVE) are CVL with a base ASW stat. They are:
- Able to be placed in the main fleet of a Transport Combined Fleet,
- Required for some Expeditions' requirements,
- Able to perform Opening ASW, as other CVL cannot reach enough ASW to trigger them.
Night Carriers (CVN) are CV/CVL capable of Carrier Night Air Attacks without needing a 
NOAP
.
Special Mechanics
- Taigei (base)
Submarine Touch
She can trigger a Special Attack involving a Submarine Tender leading a fleet of at least two submarines.
- The flagship must be a Submarine Tender (AS) at Lv 30+,
- She must not be more than moderately damaged (中破).
- The 2nd and 3rd ships must be Submarines (SS) or Aircraft Carrying Submarines (SSV) and not evacuated via
SFFCF
,
- The 4th ship may optionally be a SS(V), but does not affect the above requirement,
- At least two SS(V) among the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th ships must not be more than lightly damaged (小破),
- If all 3 ships are SS(V), the 2nd and 4th ones will attack; if one of the two is moderately damaged (中破), the 3rd one will attack instead.[1]
- The fleet must be a single fleet or a Striking Force Fleet,
- The formation needs to be either Echelon
or Line Abreast

- ↑ Submarine tenders were also designed to house submarine crews to allow them to rest.
- ↑ This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.

- ↑ She was the only ship damaged during the Doolittle Raid.
- ↑ She was used primarily for transporting planes during the war. After being badly damaged in the Bombing of Kure, she was permanently moored in the bay and had AA guns set up on her as an air defense position.
