=Introduction=

Installations are an enemy type in game that is characterised by high armour and high HP. They are difficult to handle using normal anti-ship setups and require specific setups in order to destroy. Installations are typically found as bosses or as boss escorts.

=General Characteristics=

* They cannot be targeted by torpedoes.
** Opening and closing torpedoes will fail to trigger if only installation targets remain.
* The torpedo stat is '''ignored''' when calculating night battle damage against installations. Please see [[Night Battle]] for more details.
** This makes destroyers, light cruisers and heavy cruisers much weaker unless equipped with anti-installation equipment.
* Submarines can attack installations during shelling if equipped with a [[Type 2 Ka-Mi Tank]].
** They will be able to attack installations at night regardless of equipment.
** Their low firepower makes them poor anti-installation ships.
* Only '''dive bombers''' will attack installations during the air strike phase.
* Carriers will only attack installations in the shelling phase if equipped with '''torpedo bombers or anti-installation dive bombers'''.
** The special dive bombers are:
*** [[Ju 87C Kai]]
*** [[Ju 87C Kai Ni (w/ KMX)]]
*** [[Ju 87 C Kai 2 (w/ KMX / Skilled)]]
*** [[Prototype Nanzan]]
*** [[Suisei Model 12 (634 Air Group w/ Type 3 Cluster Bombs)]]
*** [[FM-2]]
*** [[F4U-1D]]
** 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'''.
* Carriers are '''unable to perform cut-ins''' on installations, even if equipped with anti-installation dive bombers.
*
* They have different damage statuses instead of the normal ones used for ships.

=Installation Classification=

Installations are classified by two categories, Ship Type (BB, BBV, CV) and skin toughness (Hard, Soft).

===Ship Type===
'''Battleship (BB)'''
* Examples are [[Artillery Imp]]s and [[Central Princess]].
* They use the [[Damage_Calculations#Surface_Shelling|surface shelling formula]] for calculating damage.
* They use the shelling attack animation in day and night battle.
* They '''can continue attacking''' when moderately damaged.

'''Aviation Battleship (BBV)'''
* Most installations fall under this category.
* They use the [[Damage_Calculations#Carrier_Attacks|carrier attack formula]] for calculating damage.
* They use the shelling attack animation in day and night battle.
* They cannot attack during the day if heavily damaged.
* They are forced to attack submarines if they have equipment with an ASW {{ASW}} stat.

'''Carrier (CV)'''
* Example is [[Lycoris Princess]].
* They use the [[Damage_Calculations#Carrier_Attacks|carrier attack formula]] for calculating damage.
* They use the carrier attack animation in day battle and the shelling animation at night.
* They cannot attack during the day if moderately damaged.
* They do not enable the 2nd shelling phase if there is no battleship present.
