Analysis
Priority: Low
- Her firepower is on the low side and she is made worse by her low plane count and only having 3 slots to work with. All her slots are small which severely limits her damage potential. Although she can OASW, she is unable to take advantage of synergy bonuses which limits her potential.
=Not Recommended Roles
- Combat
- ASW
- Air Support
- Shelling Support
- Airstrike Support

- ↑ Casablanca-class carriers alone were being produced at a rate of roughly one every two weeks by 1944.
- ↑ The United States Navy originally classified escort carriers as auxiliary aircraft escort vessels (AVG), then auxiliary aircraft carriers (ACV), before settling on escort aircraft carrier (CVE), highlighting a new combatant role.
- ↑ This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
