Analysis

Priority: Medium

She has decent firepower but is let down somewhat by her slot distribution. Her slots being nearly evenly distributed makes her good for launching airstrikes since it spreads the damage around. Her large slot being on top reduces the chances of her losing out on plane proficiency bonuses. Additionally, her two medium slots being on the large side in their own right means she is less at risk of losing the ability to artillery spot. Her ability to shell at moderate damage is another bonus. However, she is only available from LSC which makes her expensive to obtain.

Recommended Roles

  • Air Support
  • Shelling Support

  1. Her enclosed hangar wasn't well ventilated allowing fumes to accumulate. This resulted in a detonation that sunk her.
  2. A hurricane bow is a bow that is sealed up to the flight deck to improve airflow.
  3. The literal translation of the phrase "未帰還機" is "plane that failed to return".
  4. She was based in Tawi Tawi for the Battle of the Phippine Sea.
  5. This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
  6. Referring to the Battle of the Philippine Sea known to USN crews as the Great Marianas Turkey Shoot due to how inexperienced IJN pilots were shot down en masse by anti-aircraft crews.
  7. She was supposed to carry Reppu and Ryuusei but they weren't ready before she was commissioned.

Trivia

  • Her name means "Great Phoenix"
  • Sunk by a single torpedo by USS Albacore during Battle of the Philippine Sea, June 19, 1944
  • Her being sunk six hours after a single torpedo hit is considered really unlucky, all due to an inexperienced crew, serious design flaws, and poor damage control.
  • Has the lowest luck stat in the game.
