Hidden Fit Bonuses

• She has accuracy bonuses and penalties when equipped with certain large guns. Please see Gun Fit Bonuses for mode details.

Analysis

Priority:

• Kai: High

She is easy to obtain and has a low remodel level which makes her a good aviation battleship for newer players. She functions just fine as a seaplane fighter carrier for taking air superiority in maps where carriers are restricted. However, her low firepower means she underperforms in combat compared to other battleships.

• Kai Ni: Medium

Her Kai Ni gives her a significant boost to her firepower that brings her closer to the other battleships. Though she is still on the low side compared to the other slow battleships. She does gain a huge improvement to her slot distribution since she now has a single large slot that allows her to carry seaplane bombers with a lot less risk that the slot will be emptied. The size of her bottom slot means that she'll also have decent airstrike power against soft targets. She does make a good stopgap aviation battleship until you get Ise to Kai Ni, which will take a while and cost a lot.

Recommended Roles

• Combat - Kai Ni
• Air Support
• Support Expeditions

Not Recommended Roles

• Combat - Kai

Important Info

• Required for quests A17, A22, A42, A44, B14, B31, and B33.

Notes

• She is required by quest A17 and the Nishimura Fleet and New Nishimura Fleet quests (A22, A44, B14, and B33.

Trivia

• She takes her name from an ancient name for Japan.
  • 扶桑 (fusou) sounds similar to 不幸 (fukou) or 'misfortune', & 不相応 (fusouou) or 'misplaced' or 'unsuitable'.
• Japan's first Super-Dreadnought and the first to be completely indigenous as opposed to the, at the time, British-designed Kongou-class battlecruisers.
• Her Aviation Battleship remodel is based off a plan for the Fusou-class after the carrier losses at the Battle of Midway. However, it was executed on the Ise-class instead.
• Sunk, by possibly USS Melvin, during night battle in the Battle of Surigao Strait, October 25th, 1944.
  • There is a conflict in the accounts of her sinking:
    1. Torpedoes caused progressive flooding, upending and capsizing her within forty minutes.
    2. Torpedoes struck a magazine, causing a spectacular explosion and splitting in two with each half remaining afloat and burning for an hour. This seems to be increasingly discounted.
• Received Kai Ni on October 24th, 2014
