See full page: Improving Ship Speed


A ship is either slow or fast natively, the speed can be increased (from slow to fast to fast+ to fastest) using engine synergies, by equipping a turbineImproved Kanhon Type Turbine (can be equipped in the Reinforcement ExpansionReinforcement Expansion) and one or more boilers (Enhanced Kanhon Type BoilerEnhanced Kanhon Type Boiler and New Model High Temperature High Pressure BoilerNew Model High Temperature High Pressure Boiler) on a ship.

  • As some branching rules are affected by speed, speeding up a fleet can make it follow a different routing.
    • Note, however, that this does not change ship types, initially slow BB and BBV can have fast speed, but still are not FBB.
  • BB/BBV that are fast+ can be placed in the escort fleet of STF/TCF (only fast for Warspite Kai).
