Player Opinion
Performance
Right from the start, the Bogue features a full complement of monoplane aircraft. They are faster, can take more of a beating, and carry heavier ordnance than the aircraft on the Langley. However, her initial air group configuration is inferior to the Langley, with only one fighter and one torpedo squadron, but no dive bomber squadron. Just like the Langley, however, she is very slow and if she gets engaged she will get sunk.
The Bogue offers a choice of two air group configurations: the Mk5 mod. 3, nicknamed "Air Superiority", containing two fighter squadrons and a single dive bomber squadron; and the Mk5 mod. 2, nicknamed "Strike" because of the focus on torpedo and dive bombers, at the expense of all fighters.
One more thing, Bogue doesn't have nearly as many reserve planes compared to Langley, and being reckless will surely get your planes destroyed.Pros:
- Very powerful AA for its tier
- Very good for punishing/bullying inexperienced enemy carrier captains
- Air Superiority loadout easily crushes aerial threats
- Strike loadout, when managed correctly, can make quick work of any capital ships and even alpha strike the enemy carrier.
Cons:
- Glacially slow at 16.5 knots, only being 1.5 knots faster than Langley at the cost of an even slower acceleration
- Poor rudder-shift time
- Absolutely pitiful armor
- Even fewer secondaries than Langley, which also have a bad firing arc and can only defend the stern of the ship.
- Very few reserve planes - less than the number of aircraft it can deploy for a complete replacement.
- Planes still lack durability and take a while to travel to their targets.
Research
- Research one of the two flight control upgrades first to gain a third squadron.
- Research the "B" hull next to greatly improve the carrier's defenses and gain four more reserve aircraft.
- The rest can be researched in any order.
