Type Classification

Ship type codes on the list and the rest of the wiki are based on NATO hull classification or modifications thereof.

  • Many of the types seen in this table are only visible through the in-game Library, and so are not counted in situations like quest/sorties/expeditions compositions
    • Some exceptions do exist and are explicitly noted.
  • Some of those types are not displayed within the game, but are counted within the code and so do count for some situations like quest/sorties/expeditions compositions.

  3. ↑ Used in some battleships' library description.
  4. ↑ Not a proper NATO hull classification code, the real code being CC, or for "Large Cruisers" being CB.
  5. ↑ Mostly referring to the Kongou-class.
  6. ↑ Abyssal only so far
Notes
  • Some Abyssals also have some other exclusive subtypes.
  • So far, the following types are fully interchangeable regarding Routing, Expeditions, and Quests requirement:
    • CV and CVB
    • SS and SSV

Types seen instead of the "real" ship type, notably on thier cards and in ship menus.

  • Those types have little gameplay effects compared to the main type.
  • The differences can often be resumed to special equipabilities.

Equipment Categories, Types, Icons, and Mechanics

Every piece of equipment in the game has an icon, regrouping them by type, giving a quick visual indicator of what a given equipment is.

  • One icon can be shared with different equipment types.
  • Some icons are used for a single equipment.
  • Some equipment icons on the wiki will be displayed with "text" Empty SlotText, indicating special notes like stats or sub-types of equipment.
    • Categories labeled as Empty SlotSp are for "special subtypes", types of equipment with the same mechanics as their normal main type, but corresponding to "larger variants", equipable on respectively larger or more capable ships.

All icons here and on the rest of the wiki are clickable.

Equipment Types Mechanics
For a better understanding of plane-related mechanics, see Aerial Combat
Carriers-Bassed Those planes are mainly equipable on Carriers (CV/CVB/CVL).
FighterNight Fighter Fighters Fighter Fighters FightersFighterNight Fighter/Night Fighter are one of the main types of plane used by CV(B/L). Their main role is to bring Air Power during the 1st Aerial Stage, with their "Fighter Power" Anti-Air stat being the most important factor in this regard. Fighters are additionally needed for Aircraft Carrier Cut-Ins (CVCI) during the day Shelling.
Night Fighter Night Fighters
Dive Bomber Dive Bombers Dive Bomber Dive Bombers Dive Bomber Dive Bombers are one of the main types of plane used by CV(B/L). Their main role is to do damage during the Airstrike, with their "Dive Bombing" Dive Bomber Attack stat being the most important factor in this regard. Dive Bombers are additionally needed for dealing damage during day Shelling, especially for Aircraft Carrier Cut-Ins (CVCI).
Dive Bomber Fighter-Bombers "Fighter-Bombers" are "Dive Bombers", both behaving the exact same way, with the only notable difference being the Improvement effects given by Improved.
Torpedo Bomber Night Torpedo Bomber Torpedo Bombers Torpedo Bomber Torpedo Bombers Torpedo BombersTorpedo BomberNight Torpedo Bomber/Night Bomber are one of the main types of plane used by CV(B/L). Their main role is to do damage during the Airstrike, with their "Torpedo" Torpedo Attack stat being the most important factor in this regard. Torpedo Bombers are additionally needed for dealing damage during day Shelling, especially for Aircraft Carrier Cut-Ins (CVCI).
Night Torpedo Bomber Night Torpedo Bombers
JetFighterBomber2.pngJetFighterBomber1.png Jet-powered Fighter-Bombers Jets are a special type of carrier-based bombers that follow the same damage calculation as regular Dive Bombers using the "dive bombing" Dive Bomber Attack stat, while providing great additional "air power" Anti-Air, as well as "Long Range" Range.
  • They will notably carry out an additional exclusive attack called "Jet Assault" (JA) before the beginning of any battle.
  • They cannot trigger the CVCI.
  • They bring some accuracy bonus against PT boats.
  • See Jets for more details.

Bombers Attackers Land-based Attack Aircraft Attackers Land-Based AttackersLand-based Attack AircraftLand-based FighterbomberLand-based Assault AircraftLand-based Patrol Aircraft are the main type of bomber used on LBAS. Their most important stats are "torpedo" Torpedo Attack against regular ship, and "dive bombing" Dive Bomber Attack against Installations, as well as their "combat radius" Operation Radius.
Land-based Fighterbomber Army AttackersBomb-carrying Type 1 Fighter Hayabusa Model III Kai (65th Squadron)
Land-based Assault Aircraft Assault Aircraft (Army Attackers)
Land-based Patrol Aircraft Patrol Aircraft Land-based Patrol Aircraft Land-Based Patrol Aircraft are counted as regular Land-Based Attackers on every aspect.

Additionally, Patrol Aircraft are ASW Aircraft, and so are mainly used for ASW (see here).

Large Aircraft Land-based Heavy Bomber Heavy Bombers Land-based Heavy Bomber Land-Based Heavy Bombers mostly work like other Land-Based Attackers, but unlike them, they have only 9 planes in LBAS slots, instead of 18, as well as slightly worse damage modifiers, dividing their base attack power by about half.
Interceptors/Fighters Land-based Fighter Jet Fighter Jet Land-Based Fighters/InterceptorsLand-based FighterLand-based FighterLand-based Fighter JetLand-based Canard Fighter are LBAS exclusive fighters, that are used to either:
  • Provide Sortie Fighter-Power, where the "fighter Power" Anti-Air, "interception" Interception, and "combat radius" Operation Radius stats are the most important,
  • Intercept enemy bombers, where the "fighter Power" Anti-Air, "interception" Interception, and especially the "anti-bomber" Anti-Bomber stats are the most important.
Land-based Canard Fighter Canard Fighters
Land-based Fighter Army Fighters

Rocket Interceptors

  • High Altitude Interceptors multiply the total air power of all land bases in Air Defense mode, when defending against enemy High-Altitude Bombers. The multiplier depends on the number of high altitude interceptors equipped and which difficulty the event map is played on:

Night Reconnaissance Seaplane Night Reconnaissance Seaplanes In addition to all Seaplane Recon mechanics:

Night Reconnaissance Seaplane Night Recons are normal Seaplane Recon with the extra ability to trigger "Night Contact".

  • The scouting phase animation will not show up like day battles; instead, the night recon plane's animation is played in the enemy fleet's radar.
  • [Bug] In a Combined Fleet situation, if a ship in the fleet equipped with a night scout is evacuated from the combined fleet using the Fleet Command Facility, the night recon can still trigger and activate as the fleet proceeds onward and enters a night battle.

Night Seaplane Bomber Night Seaplane Bombers In addition to all Seaplane Bomber mechanics:

Night Seaplane Bomber Night Seaplane Bombers are required to trigger a special Night Cut-In on certain ships.

  • This cut-in also triggers the Star Shell effect and bonuses.
Seaplane Fighter Seaplane Fighters Seaplane Fighter Seaplane Fighters share all the regular Fighters mechanics, with a different set of ship equippability. Additionally, they:
Large Flying Boat Large Flying Boats Large Flying Boat Large Flying Boats notably:
  • Can trigger Contact and Detection.
  • Allow AV to perform ASW attacks.
  • Increase the minimum Range of Land Bases, from +1 to +3 range depending on the base's unmodified range.
  • Can be used in the Air Reconnaissance nodes mechanic.
  • When equipped in any slot size, the plane count is dropped down to 1, refunding any bauxite.

Although it is a scout which does not actually participate in Aerial Combat mechanics-wise, it is still included in the launching animation if other planes are launched.

Misc Some auxiliary aircraft, mainly used for ASW.
Rotorcraft Rotorcraft Autogyros Rotorcraft Rotorcraft are ASW Aircraft, being used to trigger some OASW and Land-based ASW attacks.

As they do not have any Dive Bombing Dive Bomber Attack stat, they do not participate to Phases 2 & 3 of Aerial Combat and are immune to shootdown. They:

  • Will launch during aerial battle if other planes are launched, but cannot start an aerial battle on their own.
  • Allow BBV, CAV, AV, and LHA to perform ASW attacks.
  • CVL and Kaga Kai Ni Go equipped with them will still require a Dive Bomber Dive Bomber or a Torpedo Bomber Torpedo Bomber to attack submarines, as they are unable to attack anything without a bomber.
  • AS, AR, and some CVB can equip them, but the former cannot attack SS, and the latter has a carrying capacity of 0 so they do not function.
  • AO can equip them, but their attack animation will still be a depth charge animation.

Their LBAS Combat Radius cannot be extended.

Dive Bomber Dive-Bombers that can attack installations
This is a segment from a bigger article. See Combat/Anti-Installation for details on Installation mechanics.

Carriers will only attack installations in the shelling phase if equipped with Torpedo Bombers or Anti-Installation Dive Bombers.

  • Additionally, carriers will attack installations if equipped with non-special dive bombers AND one of the special dive bombers below.
  • Any other dive bomber will completely disable shelling against installations even if the carrier has a torpedo bomber equipped.
  • This can be very useful to manipulate the targeting mechanic so the carriers attack important targets.

Surface Ship Equipment Smoke Generator Smoke GeneratorsSmoke Generator (Smoke Screen)
Smoke Generator Kai (Smoke Screen) 		Smoke Generator Smoke Generators can be used in combat to deploy a smoke screen.

Example of a large smoke deployed.
  • There are 3 smoke screen sizes, being Small < Medium < Large.
    • The maximum smoke size that can be generated is dependent on the number of smoke generators, being respectively 1/2/3.
    • Note that Improved improvements also affect the maximum smoke level possible.
  • It sharply reduces the accuracy of all fleets, proportionally to the smoke screen size (the hit rate is still capped at 11%).
    • This effect can be partially bypassed by using radars (both sides).
  • The effect will last for the day battle, even so the animation will fade before the battle's end.

Smoke activation button next to the Formation ones.
  • If equipped, it can be activated with a specific button when selecting the formation.
    • It can be activated multiple times per sortie until it triggers, being triggerable once, in day battle only.
  • It cannot be activated in Exercises in the current implementation.
  • The trigger rate is not 100% and depends on the fleet's flagship's luck Luck, as well as the amount and type of Smoke Generators used.
    • For combined fleets, it is the luck of the main flagship.
    • The size of the triggered smoke screen depends on how many smoke generators are used.
  • It will only trigger at the beginning of the Shelling phase.

The 3 different smoke size

Two formulas have been determined to approximate the trigger rate of smoke screens.

  • The 2nd formula is based on the 1st one with additional hypothesis,
  • A measurement of the trigger rate can be found here,
  • Both formulas can be directly compared here.
  • It is possible to have a total trigger rate for all 3 sizes of 100%, giving the FS has enough luck & enough generators are used.

  • The smoke gives an Accuracy malus to both fleets when used:
    • Please note that these are initial estimations and are subject to change.
    • It is currently unknown if the airstrike accuracy is affected by the smoke.
    • Some modifiers are near impossible to determine because the fleet hit the lower bound hit rate (11% hard cap).
    • There are some inconsistencies between "old" and "new" enemies.
    • Having a (surface ?) radar equipped reduces the smoke effect for both fleets, but only for the shelling phase.

Example of Underway Replenishment translated.

Supplies Underway ReplenishmentUnderway Replenishments are consumable items that are used to restore fuel and ammo mid-sortie when consumed.

When entering a boss node, a prompt will appear giving a choice to use the Underway Replenishment(s) or not.

  • The cost of the resupply will be deducted from the stockpile.
  • The resupply cannot be activated when having insufficient Fuel fuel or Ammunition ammo.
  • The amount of Fuel fuel and Ammunition ammo resupplied depends on
    • The fleet type (single or combined)
    • How many Resupplies are carried.

The resupply rates are as follow:

  • As "consumables", they do not take any equipment slot and appear in the Inventory and are equippable in RE.

Ships entering a battle whilst Heavily Damaged (大破) have a chance to be Sunk (撃沈) .

  • In the case of the flagship, being Heavily Damaged (大破) will force a retreat after that node.

Equipping at least one Emergency Repair Personnel Emergency Repair Personnel can prevent the equipped ship from sinking, by reviving it after being sunk.

  • If this is equipped on a flagship, the player can use this before heading to another node.
    • If both Item Icon Emergency Repair Personnel.png Personnel & Item Icon Emergency Repair Goddess.png Goddess are equipped, then it is possible to choose which one to use (see the picture).
  • Emergency Repair Personnel can only repair the ship they are equipped on.
  • Once repaired, a ship becomes unsinkable for the rest of the battle, including night battle.
  • The item is consumed upon activation.

Ration "Rations" are consumable items:

  • As "consumables", they do not take any equipment slot and appear in the Inventory and are equippable in RE.

When equipped on a ship, they are consumed during a Sortie when either:

  • The boss node is reached, a prompt appearing to ask whether to consume or not the rations,
  • The sortie reaches 3 battles, having a random chance to trigger onward (probably linked to ship's morale dropping below a certain level).

When rations are consumed:

  • The morale of the carrying ship is greatly increased,
  • The morale of both adjacent ships is moderately increased,
  • If several different rations are equipped, all are consumed, the moral boost synergizing.

General

Docking

For more information on this topic, see Docking.

This allows repairing damaged ships to full health by consuming steel and fuel. Using an Instant repair instant repair (bucket) (高速修復材) will immediately finish it.

Expedition

For more information on this topic, see Expedition.

Expeditions are sorties where fleets 2, 3, and 4 can be sent, rewarding resources and certain items. This is the main way to farm resources in the game.

Modernization

For more information on this topic, see Modernization.

The process of using spare ships to increase the Stats (firepower, AA, torpedo, armor) of ships up to a certain point. Luck, ASW, and HP can also be increased in some very specific situations.

Naval Exercise

For more information on this topic, see Exercises (PvP).

These are battles against other players' fleets. Opposing teams update in real-time, but there is no simultaneous play. This is the main way to level up girls.

  • Opponent list refreshed at 03:00 and 15:00 JST.

Crossing the T

For more information on this topic, see Engagement.

Classic naval strategy in which a line of warships cross in front of a line formation of enemy ships, allowing the crossing line to bring all their guns to bear while receiving fire from only the forward guns of the enemy.

Gameplay-wise:

  • When the fleet crosses the enemy fleet (Green T), both sides receive a significant damage buff,
  • When the enemy fleet crosses the fleet (Red T), both sides receive a significant damage debuff.

Phases of Battle

For more information on this topic, see Combat.

Remodel

For more information on this topic, see Remodel.

Often confused with Modernization, will usually result in *ship name*-Kai (改). also known as Upgrading.

Morale

For more information on this topic, see Morale and Fatigue.

Morale greatly affects Expeditions and Combat. A ship's Morale can range from 0 to 100, it decreases when doing sorties, and increases by 3 every 3 min up to 49 when doing nothing.

Fatigue

For more information on this topic, see Tutorial: FAQ#Alright, I built my ship and kicked some butt, but I noticed the orange faces. What gives?.

Orange or Red sad faces are displayed next to the ship icon if they are too fatigued. Rest them for 15 to 30 min to have them back at normal morale. Fatigued ships will have lower accuracy and evasion. If girls are still fatigued upon returning from expeditions, the expedition will fail even with all other criteria fulfilled.

Sparkle

For more information on this topic, see Sparkling/glittering!.

The opposite of Fatigue. If a ship "sparkle", she will gain a boost in sorties. Sparkling also plays a very important role in expeditions, where having multiple sparkled girls can increase significantly the "Great Succes" rate. See Help:Sparkling to learn how to sparkle ships.

Medals & Blueprints

For more information on this topic, see Blueprint.

Medals and Blueprints owned are displayed in the Inventory.

Item Icon Medal.png Medals are a multi-purpose item that can be exchanged for resources, consumables, or a "Remodel Blueprint". They are also needed for certain quests and improvements.

  • They are obtained by clearing certain maps and quests and are common among event rewards.

Blueprint Blueprints (BP) are items used exclusively to remodel ships, most better remodels requiring at least one Blueprint.

Tracer-fire effect

This occurs when a ship fires any equipped AA guns against planes. The flagship will always do this by default, even without any anti-air stat.

Japanese Naming Conventions

Ships

Battleships were named after provinces.

  • Exceptions: The Kongou-class were originally battle cruisers, and so are named after mountains.

Aircraft Carriers were named after flying beasts, being the "dragon" (龍, "ryuu"), "phoenix" (鳳, "hou"), "crane" (鶴, "kaku"), or "falcon" (鷹, "you"). Light carriers tend to have "falcon" or "phoenix" names, where fleet carriers tend to have "dragon" or "crane" names, but this is not strict.

  • Exceptions: Akagi and Kaga were originally designed as a battlecruiser and a battleship, respectively, and follow those classes' naming conventions instead (Akagi is named after a mountain, Kaga is named after a province). Chitose and Chiyoda were not originally aircraft carriers, their names are poetic words for "millennium", and they kept those names after being converted (a choice of their crew). Only Taigei's name was changed to fit in with the standard carrier naming scheme ("Ryuuhou" means "Dragon Phoenix").

Heavy/Battle Cruisers were named after Japanese mountains.

  • Exceptions: The Mogami-class class were originally designed as light cruisers before being reclassified into heavy cruisers (and later aviation cruisers), and so are named after rivers. The Tone-class, being more lightly armed than the Takao or Myoukou classes, were also named after rivers.

Light Cruisers were named after Japanese rivers.

Destroyers were named after natural phenomena/weather, often snow (雪, "-yuki"), waves (波, "-nami"), rain (雨, "-ame", "-are"), wind (風, "-kaze"), clouds (雲, "-kumo" or "-gumo"), tides (潮, "-shio"), or the moon (月, "-tsuki" or "-zuki").

Kaiboukans were named after small Japanese islands.

Submarines were simply given operating numbers in the same manner as German U-boats, following a syllable of the word 'Iroha'. All 1st Class submarines were designated 'I-' (such as all the submarines present in KanColle), where 2nd and 3rd Class submarines began with 'Ro' and training submarines were 'Ha-'.

  • In Kancolle, the girls use the classical or modern Japanese number reading to make their nicknames (see here).

Submarine Tenders were a varied group of ships. Several of these had the character for "whale" (鯨, "gei") in their names, but many did not.

  • Shouhou and Zuihou were originally designed as Submarine Tenders before being converted into Light Carriers. Like Ryuuhou, their names were changed upon conversion, they were originally named Tsurugizaki and Takasaki.

Other ships (like AV/AO/AP) were named after various things, such as maritime locations (like straits), poetic ideas, ancient Japanese designations and concepts, or other Japanese locations like cities or sub-prefectures.

"Non-navy ship" names were often appended with "Maru" (丸) the character for "circle". The reason for this tradition seems to have been lost to time, but may be related to the red circle being the symbol and flag of Japan (the "hi-no-maru") or as a superstition, helping ships travel a circle of going out to sea and returning home.

The "common abyssal classes" are based on the Iroha, a classical Japanese alphabetical ordering. That this is classical Japanese implies that the classes are externally ascribed to the Abyssal fleet ships, especially combined with the highly descriptive names for the bosses.

In modern days, some of those naming conventions are still in use in Japan, but applied to modern ship types.

Tanks

Tanks were given composed names using the following rules:

  • 1st name part, the type of tank:
    • Light: Ke
    • Medium: Chi
    • Heavy: O
    • Gun (Tank Destroyer): Ho

  • 2nd name part, the number of the tank within its type:
    • 1: I or Yi
    • 2: Ro
    • 3: Ha
    • 4: Ni
    • 5: Ho
    • 6: He
    • 7: To
    • 8: Chi
    • 9: Ri
    • 10: Nu
    • 11: Ru
    • 12: O or Wo

Using the medium tanks as an example:

  • Chi-I (Medium First): None (most likely Experimental Type 1 Tank)
  • Chi-Ro (Medium Second): Type 89 I-Go
  • Chi-Ha (Medium Third): Type 97 Chi-Ha
  • Chi-Ni (Medium Fourth): Type 97 Chi-Ni (never got out of prototype status)
  • Chi-Ho (Medium Fifth) Type 98 Chi-Ho (never got out of prototype status)
  • Chi-He (Medium Sixth): Type 1 Chi-He
  • Chi-To (Medium Seventh): Type 4 Chi-To
  • Chi-Ri (Medium Ninth): Type 5 Chi-Ri
  • Chi-Nu (Medium Tenth): Type 3 Chi-Nu
