Outside of this, her capabilities as a tender make her a rather frail unit in the fleet as she's not really useful for many stages outside of [[World 6#6-1|6-1 (The Submarine Operation]] where she can assist in leading an all sub fleet away from one extra fight (but in return is at risk of becoming a target).+ + + + + + + + + + + + + − Upon gaining the medals to obtain a [[blueprint]], Taigei can be turned into Ryuuhou while allows her to now become a carrier. Ryuuhou however doesn't end up gaining anything useful till she reaches Kai which you earn a [[Type 97 Torpedo Bomber (931 Air Group)]] which is considered to be useful for Anti-Submarine Operations since it has a rather decent ASW stat for a torpedo bomber. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + − Outside of these things, Ryuuhou is still however limited as her plane capacity is small and placed in a way that limits her useage and make her a difficult to use for various operations. However, like [[Houshou]] she is cheap and inexpensive to run. Making Ryuuhou another good carrier to train planes on early maps and possibly can be used for early event maps to save usage for other carriers in later maps.+ + + Line 586:
Line 841: − *"Taigei" means "big whale", thus the design on her AS form's dress and Ryuuhou form's hairpin. "Ryuuhou" means "dragon phoenix". − *She is one of two ships in-game that were released with a second remodel in the same update. The other is [[U-511]]. − *Due to her status as the only Submarine tender currently in the game, she is required for [[Quests#A37|quest A37]], [[Quests#D13|quest D13]] and [[Quests#D14|quest D14]]. − − ==Historical Note== − Designed as a seagoing submarine tender, with floatplane facilities for scouting purposes, ''Taigei'' entered service in 1934. She was built with very high freeboard and shallow draught, which meant she was a very poor seaboat. Added to her extensively welded construction, which proved very defective, meant that she was a most unsatisfactory and unsuccessful ship. − − In 1941, she was rebuilt and re-entered service as the light fleet carrier ''Ryuuhou''. Her diesel engines were replaced with destroyer turbines in an attempt to give her higher speed, but due to displacement and dimension adjustments, she remained a very unsuccessful conversion of an already unsuccessful design. Her weak hull and poor internal sub-division severely limited her usefulness, resulting in little frontline service. − − She was damaged in the Battle of the Philippine Sea and then severely damaged near Kure on 19 March 1945 by [[wikipedia:Task_Force_58|Task Force 58]]. She was considered a total loss and struck from the Navy List on November 30, 1945 with her scrapping occurring in 1946.

===Analysis===
Priority: '''Very Low'''
* Taigei
: Her main use as Taigei is routing requirements in 6-1. In all other respects, she is a subpar ship. She can be used to contest air superiority where carriers are banned but any other aviation ship will be better than her.
* Ryuuhou
: Her firepower is bad and her plane counts to not help. In addition, she has a bad slot distribution with a single large slot and the rest of her slots being small. This limits her to taking only one bomber. Her one saving grace is that her large slot is on top which allows her to take advantage of the proficiency bonus easily. All that said, her remodel requires a blueprint which makes it very costly for the minimal benefits she brings.
