Template:Range Extension

Range determines which ships attack first. It is impossible to reduce the base range of a ship, but certain equipment can extend it.

• Not to be confused with LBAS Range Extension.

• USN DDs, Dan Yang, and Yukikaze Kai Ni are the only DDs that can reach Long Range, once equipped with an SG Radar
  .
• Using both a Very Long Range equipment and a Type 2 Reconnaissance Aircraft on Ise Kai Ni or Hyuuga Kai Ni, will set them at "Longest Range".

Some ships have a different range than the rest of their type (often following a remodel):
