Foreign Plane Bonuses have returned and should be examined when planning equipment setups. The following bonuses are applied:

• Ships using planes get bonuses based on the different categories of bonuses ɑ/β/γ, A, and B.
  • The ɑ/β/γ groups are the general foreign plane bonuses, being divided into three "levels" (γ>β>ɑ) and being both map-wide and node-specific,
  • Group A are French and British bonuses divided into three sub-categories:
    • A1 are French seaplanes,
    • A2 are British seaplanes,
    • A3 are Swordfish.
  • B# bonuses are primarily for LBAS (with ship-based & land-based planes), with the ship-based planes also providing the same bonuses to ships, and being divided into two "levels" (B2>B1)
    • Heavy Bombers also have similar bonuses

Notes

• These bonuses work for all ships and for all attack types, including: LBAS, jet assault, airstrikes, air/surface shelling, and night attacks.
• Bonuses from a same line or column do not stack.
• Map-wide bonuses and node-specific bonuses always stack.
• Bonuses still work for planes equipped in 0-slot for ships.
• Bonuses do not work on 0-slot for LBAS.

  • On the 2024-07-31 update, the FR-1 Fireball/SB2C-5 bug has been fixed and other bonuses have been added.
  • On the 2024-08-08 update, the new USN bonuses have been added on release.

Tips

• Carriers:
  1. Try to equip one plane from each column and row
  2. For example: ɑ/A3 + β/B1 + γ/B2
  • This also applies to ships that carry multiple plane types in normal setups.
• Other Ship Types:
  • As only one seaplane is generally equipped on a ship, pick γ>β>ɑ and then the highest bonus among groups A or/and B depending on the node.

• For Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3 bonuses, having one equipment from the group is enough to have the bonus.
  • Equipping a second gear from the same group will not provide any additional bonus.
  • The bonus groups stack with each other.
• Do not confuse the balloon mechanic fleet-wide buff with this event bonus that only buffs the individual ship equipped with it.

Trivia

• M Node is Brest, during WW2 it was the home port for the French Navy and was where the famous Force de Raid was based and sortied from until their transfer to Mers El Kebir during the French capitulation. Then it fell under German control and was used from 1941 as the dock and home port for the German Surface fleet including Scharnhorst, Gneisenau, Prinz Eugen, U-Boats, S-Boats, and more. It was also the site of a major engagement named "Battle for Brest" which lasted more than 2 months and resulted in massive destruction of the city.

• B Node is in the area of the Celtic Sea. During WW2 this site was a common area passed by merchant shipping and also a hunting ground for German U-Boats which could explain the abyssal submarine presence in the node.

• F Node is in Plymouth which is a major Naval Port in Great Britain. In the context of Operation Catapult, it was also the site of an incident wherein the British Forces forcefully boarded the French Vessels that escaped the Fall of France that were docked there. This led to the death of several French and Royal Navy personnel. The same happened in Portsmouth and Alexandria. This seizing of French Vessels was part of the lead-up to the Attack on Mers El Kebir.

• H Node is Portsmouth a major port and base for the Royal Navy during WW2 and launch point for major Operations in the English Channel, Atlantic, and Normandy as well as a prime target for the German Forces during the war resulting in multiple raids on the port city.

• I Node is in the area of Le Touquet, which was originally an area where the Allied Forces were stationed until the Fall of France. Under German occupation, it became a garrison and was a staging ground for Operation Sealion. It also boasted extensive German bunkers and fortifications which could explain the presence of Abyssal Pillbox Imps. It was also the target for diversion operations such as Operation Starkey and Operation Glimmer.

• K Node is around the Channel Isles: Jersey and Guernsey which were occupied by the Germans and had immense fortifications as well as constant German surface and subsurface patrols. Which could explain the abyssal Submarines.

• Nodes G and J are on the English Channel, during WW2 this was patrolled by German surface and subsurface forces along with the threat of Air Raids from German Aibases in Northern France. These were a common threat for Merchant Shipping and Allied Forces until the Invasion of Normandy.

• AirBase in Southern England is situated around London. This could be any number of Airfields such as Hendon, Northol, Fairlop, Heston, Croydon, Biggin Hill, Kenley, Hornchurch, or Gravesend.
