− | This is a stat that cannot be directly check anywhere except at the equipment screen; it shows how far ''from the starting point'' the plane is able to be sent to. The radius of all planes in the specific squadron is taken, and that is how far the full squadron can go on a mission. | + | This is a stat that cannot be directly check anywhere except at the equipment screen; it shows how far ''from the starting point'' the plane is able to be sent to.

| + | As of now the [[Summmer 2016 Event]] has updated the combat radius formula to work as follows: |
| + | *The combat radius the Squadron must travel is determined by the ===shortest distance=== it can take to get from one node to another (from start to the boss node) |
| + | *The ===longest combat radius=== is determined by the ===plane's lowest combat radius===. (Example |
| + | *Flying boat planes can help assist in increasing the distances the planes can travel from the above mentioned ===new formula=== by several a few extra nodes. (3 extra nodes with [[Type 2 Flying Boat]], 2 extra nodes with a CBY Catalina. |
