Auxiliary Ships

Auxiliary ships primarily support combat ships or naval operations. They have very limited combat capability, which is mainly for self defense.

Roles of auxiliary ships

• Transport
  • Amphibious Assault Ships (LHA)​ can only carry certain guns and carrier-based aircraft. Akitsu maru is currently the only amphibious assault ship in the game. Historically, Akitsu maru's remodel widened the flight deck, increasing the ship's aircraft carrying capacity.
• Repair
  • ​Repair ships (AR) can repair other ships in the same fleet. Akashi is the only Repair Ship.
  • For more info regarding her repair, see Anchorage Repair (泊地修理) .
• Replenishment
  • ​Taigei is currently the only submarine tender (AS).
  • She does not yet have any special abilities, but she is required for expedition 39.

• Taigei has the lowest ammo consumption among all carriers.
• Akitsu maru unremodelled version has aircraft capacity 0.
• Akitsu maru comes with a Daihatsu-class Landing Craft as her default equipment.
• Akitsu maru Kai comes with an uncraftable Type 3 Spotter/Liaison (ASW) and Ka-type Observation Autogyro.
• Both Akashi and her remodelled version come with an uncraftable Ship Repair Facility as her default equipment.
• Akashi has battleship-tier remodel cost, repair cost and repair time. 

• Green : Outstanding
• Yellow : Above average
• Since the Luck Stat is difficult to modernize, it is listed as Base(Max).
