===Damage calculation===
 
+
All damage dealt by support expedition follows the rule for [[Combat#Basic_Attack_Power|regular combat]], with one exception: Aerial support does not get the +25 to the Base Attack Power. Thus, each attack uses the following formula for damage: <math> \text {Modifier} \times \text {(Bomber's Dive Bomb or Torpedo stat)} \times \sqrt {Number \space of \space Planes}</math>, where Modifier = 1.0 for dive bombers and either 0.8 or 1.5 (50% chance of either) for torpedo bombers.
Ship's damage is dependent on firepower stats. However, CVs and CVLs are calculated differently using the following equation: Firepower (FP), Torpedo (TP), Divebomb (DB)

<div align="center" style="margin:20px;"><span style="border:1px red solid;padding:10px;"><math>Damage= 55 + (1.5 \times FP) + (1.5 \times \sum(TP)) + (2.0 \times \sum(DB)) </math></span></div>

For example; a fully modernized [[Kaga| Kaga Kai]] with 4 slots of [[Suisei Model 12A]], which provide a total sum of 40 dive bombing power (10 dive-bomb for each Suisei Model 12A):

<div align="center" style="margin:20px;"><span style="border:1px red solid;padding:10px;"><math>Damage = 55 + (1.5 \times 49) + (1.5 \times 0) + (2.0 \times (10 + 10 + 10 + 10)) = 208 </math></span></div>

Accuracy, overweight penalty and [[Type 91 Armor-Piercing (AP) Shell | AP Shells]] affect a support expedition's performance. Therefore, it is recommended to sparkle your fleet and/or equip accuracy equipment (i.e. radar).
