Equipment Icons & Types

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"  Text, indicating special notes like stats or sub-types of equipment.
    • Categories labeled as  Sp 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.

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).
   Fighters   Fighters provide air-power and shoot down opposing aircraft.
  Night Fighters
  Dive Bombers   Dive Bombers have strong "shelling attack", and cannot attack Installations unless they are Anti-Installation Dive Bombers.
  Fighter-Bombers "Fighter-Bombers" are "Dive Bombers", both behaving the exact same way, with the only notable difference being the Improvement effects given by  .
    Torpedo Bombers   Torpedo Bombers have strong "preliminary attack".
  Night Torpedo Bombers
   Jet-powered Fighter-Bombers They provide strong air-power and shelling attack, and also carry an initial "Jet Assault".
  Reconnaissance Aircraft   Reconnaissance Aircraft Reconnaissance Aircraft  Sp LB Recon  are planes that:
 Sp Large Reconnaissance Aircraft
Land-Based For a better understanding of land-base mechanics, see Land-Based Air Squadron.
Bombers Attackers   Attackers The main type of attacking planes for land-bases
 bomber Army Attackers 
  Assault Aircraft (Army Attackers)
  Patrol Aircraft Behave like other LB Attackers, with an ASW focused role.
Large Aircraft   Heavy Bombers   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   Army Fighters act like fighters, with some being more suited for interception, and others as fighter-escort:
  Navy Fighters Navy 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:

 LB Reconnaissance Aircraft Reconnaissance Aircraft  Sp LB Recon  are planes that:

Seaplanes Planes only compatible with ships having the appropriate catapult (mainly battleships, cruisers, and auxiliaries)
  "Multi-Role Seaplanes"  Recon  Reconnaissance Seaplanes  Recon Reconnaissance Seaplanes   Seaplanes are the main aircraft type used by non-carrier ships (mainly battleships, cruisers, and auxiliaries).

Reconnaissance Aircraft  Sp LB Recon  are planes that:

  Night Reconnaissance Seaplanes In addition to all Seaplane Recon mechanics:

  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.
 Bomber Seaplane Bombers   Seaplanes are the main aircraft type used by non-carrier ships (mainly battleships, cruisers, and auxiliaries).

 Bomber Seaplane Bombers additionally act like Dive Bombers, taking part in the same air phases and sharing the same damage formulas. Additionally, they:

  Seaplane Fighters   Seaplane Fighters share all the regular Fighters mechanics, with a different set of ship equippability. Additionally, they:
  Large Flying Boats   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
  Rotorcraft Autogyros   Rotorcraft are ASW Aircraft, being used to trigger some OASW and Land-based ASW attacks.

As they do not have any Dive Bombing   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 or a   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.

Helicopters
  Liaison Aircraft Liaison Aircraft are ASW Aircraft, being used to trigger some OASW and Land-based ASW attacks.

  Command Liaison Aircraft 
 
 
do not have any Dive Bombing   stat, and so 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.
  • CV/L equipped with it will still require a   Dive Bomber or a   Torpedo Bomber to attack submarines, as it is unable to attack anything without a bomber.
  • Cannot have their LBAS Combat Radius extended.

 Hayabusa ASW Hayabusa 
 
have some Dive Bombing   stat that counts toward Shelling and allow them to take part in regular Aerial Combat.

 Anti-Installation Dive Bombers
  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.

  Searchlights 
 
 Small Small Searchlight    Searchlights are used to trigger a special Night Battle mechanic when equipped, playing a special animation and applying the following effects:
  • Attack accuracy and cut-in rates of the fleet are increased.
  • Cut-in rates of the enemy fleet are decreased.
  • The enemy fleet will target and hit the ship that triggered the searchlight more often, see here.

The activation rate is 100% on ships with 2 or more HP, 0% otherwise.

  • Multiple ships equipped with searchlights do not have stacking effects.
 Large Large Searchlight 
  Star Shell    Star Shells are used to trigger a special Night Battle mechanic when equipped, playing a special animation and applying the following effects:
  • Attack accuracy and cut-in rates of the fleet are increased.
  • Cut-in rates of the enemy fleet are decreased.

The activation rate is 70% on ships with 5 or more HP, 0% otherwise.

  • Multiple ships equipped with star shells do not have stacking effects.
  • There is no side effect, unlike Searchlights.
  Skilled Lookouts 
 
  Surface Ship Personnel are equippable in RE. They:
  • Increase cut-in rates in Night Battles for the ship equipping it,
  • Are required to trigger some "New Type" Cut-ins,
  • Play an animation right before cut-in animations,
  • Bring an accuracy bonus against PT boats.
  Landing Craft  TP Transport DLC 
 
  Landing Craft can serve in several roles:
  • "Transport Craft" (type 1) are best at increasing the resources gained from expeditions,
  • "Landing Tanks" (type 2 & 3) deal more damage to installations, being an essential component of "nuke set-ups" (see Anti-Installation),
  • "Armed Boats" (type 4) act mostly like Landing Tanks, and have some additional bonus, against PT Imp notably.

Each Landing Craft equipped will increase "TP Gauge" drain by 8 during Transport Operations.

Each Landing Craft equipped (except for "Landing Tanks type 3") will increase resource gain on Resource Nodes and Expeditions.

 Tank Landing Tanks
 Armed Armed Boats 
 
  Tanks    Amphibious Vehicles behave similarly to Landing Craft. They:
  Drums    Drum Canisters are not "combat equipment", and so are mostly used for non-combat mechanics. They:
  • Increase resource gains on Resource Nodes in sorties.
  • Can affect Routing on certain maps.
  • Slightly increase TP gauge drain during Transport Operations.
  • Are required to trigger a "New Type" Cut-in.
  • Are required for expeditions 21, 37, 38, 44, & E2.
    • Can also increase the chance of Great Success for those expeditions as well as 24 & 40.
    • They do NOT increase resource gains from expeditions.
  AA Fire Directors 
 
  Anti-Aircraft Fire Directors (AAFD) are quipable in RE.
  • They provide a good Anti-Air boost, and are required to trigger some AACI.
  • They are notably used to provide   AA and   accuracy when improved  .
Shells   Anti-Aircraft Shells   AA Shells are mainly used for an Anti-Installation role, notably dealing great damages to "Soft-Skinned Installations".
  • They also provide some minor Anti-Air boost, and are required to trigger some AACI.
  • The can be equipped in the RE of FBB, BB, BBV, CA, and CAV.
  Armor-Piercing Shells   AP Shells are mainly used for increasing the general damage potential of batleships, with further bonuses for Artillery Spotting and Special Attacks.
  • They also play some Anti-Installation role, notably against "Hard-Skinned Installations".
  Anti-Ground Rockets   Anti-Ground Rockets are only used against Installations.
  • They provide both great multiplicative and flat damages boost against all installation types.
  Extra Armors  Medium Medium Extra Armors   Extra Armors are equippable in RE and give some extra   Armor stat.
 Large Large Extra Armors
  Engine Improvements Ship Speed can be increased to Fast, Fast+, or Fastest by using a combination of   "Turbine" and "Boilers".

  Ship Repair Facility    Ship Repair Facilities  are required for Anchorage Repairs and Emergency Anchorage Repairs.
  Aviation Personnels  SCAMP SCAMP    Aviation Personnels are used to bring various buff and/or mechanics, notably enhancing the performances of Carriers.

  Command Facilities 
 
 
Depending on the type,   Command Facilities provide different fleet support roles, such as:
  Saiun (Disassembled for Transport)  A removed legacy equipment.
Consumables   Underway Replenishment  Fleet Oilers (AO) can notably refuel ships mid-sortie using   Underway Replenishment .
  Emergency Repair Personnel 
 
 
Selection of which type of Emergency Repair Personnel to consume to advance (left buttons), or to retreat (right button).

  "Emergency Repair Personnel 
 
"
are consumable items:

  • 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 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   Personnel &   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.

The restored ships will be as followed:

  Emergency Repair Personnel HP recovered when sunk HP recovered on flagship Fuel/Ammo restored
  Emergency Repair Personnel  20% 50% 0%
  Emergency Repair Goddess  100% 100% 100%
  • Planes are not resupplied.
  Combat Rations 
 
 
 
Selection of whether to use a ration or not, before a boss node.

  "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.

Notes
  • Some equipment have unique mechanics within their categories.
  • Certain mechanics like AACI and ASW will differentiate equipment within their category depending on their raw stats.
