Initially, a ship is either slow or fast, the speed can be increased (from slow to fast to fast+ to fastest) using the engine synergy, by equipping a {{Equipment/Link|Improved Kanhon Type Turbine|text=turbine}} (can be equipped in the {{Item/Link|Reinforcement Expansion|text=expansion slot}}) and one or more boilers ({{Equipment/Link|Enhanced Kanhon Type Boiler}} and {{Equipment/Link|New Model High Temperature High Pressure Boiler}}) on a ship.

A ship is either slow or fast natively, the speed can be increased (from slow to fast to fast+ to fastest) using the engine synergy, by equipping a {{Equipment/Link|Improved Kanhon Type Turbine|text=turbine}} (can be equipped in the {{Item/Link|Reinforcement Expansion|text=expansion slot}}) and one or more boilers ({{Equipment/Link|Enhanced Kanhon Type Boiler}} and {{Equipment/Link|New Model High Temperature High Pressure Boiler}}) on a ship.
The effects are
+
* As some branching rules are affected by speed, speeding up a fleet can make it follow a different routing.
* Increase in speed, slow ships will be fast and will count as fast for branching rules. It is also assumed that fast+ and fastest will have their own branching rules in the future.
   
** Note, however, that this doesn't change ship types, initially slow [[BB]] and [[BBV]] (ship types 9 and 10) can have fast speed, but still aren't [[FBB]] (ship type 8).

* BB/BBV that are '''fast+''' can be placed in the escort fleet of [[Combined Fleet#Combined Fleet Types|STF/TCF]] (only '''fast''' for [[Warspite Kai]]).</noinclude>
 
* Devs [https://twitter.com/KanColle_STAFF/status/818739607776804866 claim] that higher speed values increase evasion. However, its magnitude/scope/existence is still investigated by players (preliminary tests suggest that there is no significant increase in evasion<ref>https://twitter.com/Xe_UCH/status/819164409025032195</ref><ref>http://ja.kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/%E3%82%B9%E3%83%AC%E3%83%83%E3%83%89:676</ref>).

* Fast+ and Fastest speed values allow BB and BBV to be used in the [[Combined_Fleet|CTF/STF escort fleet]].
