Enemy Abyssal fleets always succeed in Detection. PVP opponents however may fail detection, and therefore not launch planes in Aerial Combat.

The firing order is defined when each of the Shelling Phase subphases starts, and will skip over sunk and retreated ships, or ships that have no means of attacking under any circumstances, such as a carrier with no bombers ''equipped'', a submarine, or a Wa-Class Transport Ship, for example.
The firing order is defined when each of the Shelling Phase subphases starts, and skips over ships unable to attack, such as damaged/deplaned carriers, or sunk/[[Evacuation|evacuated]] ships.
If a ship would normally be able to attack but currently is unable to, such as a carrier that is {{color|orange|'''moderately damaged (中破)'''}} or lost all its equipped bombers, their turn will still be accounted for in the turn order. Ships that are unable to attack during their turn or sink before their turn will still take actionless turns.

*In this phase, both fleets will take turns shelling the opposing fleet, with the [[Shooting Order]] defined by each ship's [[Range]] {{range}} stat. It is possible to increase a ship's range with proper equipment.
*The shelling order is '''Longest''' > '''Very Long''' > '''Long''' > '''Medium''' > '''Short''' > '''None'''.
**If two or more ships tie for range, the order between them is random.
;Notes
*"Longest" range is only attainable on certain ships, using range extenders (see [[Range#Range Extension|Range Extension]]).
**Unlike the other ranges, Longest does not have a proper in-game icon and so is just displayed as "Very Long".
*"None" range is mostly reserved for Abyssal Aircraft Carriers and Transport Ships.
