Hakuryū — Japanese Tier X aircraft сarrier.

An aircraft carrier designed to be an enlarged and enhanced version of the Taiho class. Hakuryu was superior to her predecessor in size, armor and artillery power. Owing to an increased hangar, she could carry the largest air group among all Japanese aircraft carriers.

Player Opinion

Performance

Optimal Configuration

Upgrades

As a carrier at Tier X with all six possible upgrade slots, it's best to mount Air Groups Modification 1, Flight Control Modification 1 (for faster aircraft servicing time / rearming time) or Air Groups Modification 2 (for better fighter capability in fighting enemy fighters and taking down enemy bombers), Air Groups Modification 3 (for better plane survivability due to the powerful anti-air armaments of cruisers at this tier), Damage Control System Modification 1, Damage Control System Modification 2 (if the player chooses to use Emergency Takeoff Skill and does not have Damage Control Party ready) or Propulsion Modification 2 (if the player feels the need to relocate and avoid enemies is more important), and Concealment System Modification 1 on Hakuryu.

Commander Skills

As Hakuryu is a Tier X carrier, the player has access to the special carrier Defensive Fire consumable, which lasts for two minutes and increases the ship's AA DPS by a factor of 1.75. Coupled with Basic Firing Training and Manual Fire Control for AA Armament, the player can significantly increase the ship's AA DPS to shoot down enemy planes effectively. Or, as Hakuryu has access to the Concealment System Modification, the player can opt to choose to utilize the Concealment Expert skill as an indirect form of further protection from enemy ships (with skill, camouflage, and upgrade, detection is 11.12km). Owing to Hakuryu's superb array of bomber squadrons, being a very stealthy carrier will allow the player to strike at enemies relentlessly, being able to simultaneously be close to the enemy as well as "cycle" the attack squadrons out in quick succession, as the planes at this tier are very fast and even more so after they have dropped their bombs on the enemy.

Consumables

As a Tier X carrier, Hakuryu has access to the following consumables:

• Damage Control Party
• Defensive AA Fire

Premium Defensive AA Fire is recommended to counter any enemy carrier's attempts to "snipe" the player (that is, by having all bombers bypass allied ships undetected and attempting to sink the player in one hit). Premium Damage Control Party II is not recommended as it is only needed in dire moments, or when the player is the last one alive.

Camouflage

Type 1, 2, or 5 camouflage can be equipped for credits; Types 1 or 5 are recommended at a minimum to reduce detectability range.

Players who wish to spend doubloons are recommended to equip Hakuryu with the permanent Type 20 camouflage rather than the pay-per-battle premium Type 6 camouflage as the permanent Type 20 lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, reduces cost of repairs, and increases the amount of credits and experience she earns. The premium Type 6, unlike the permanent Type 20, does not provide repair cost reduction benefits nor does it increase the amount of credits earned.

Signals

As a carrier, Hakuryu can only mount at most four signals at a time and has no risk of detonating. Players should mount Equal Speed Charlie London (for faster XP grinding / increased XP gain per battle), Zulu Hotel (when coupled with Equal Speed Charlie London greatly helps increase commander (re)training), November Echo Setteseven (for better bomber self-defense against fighters and increased AA DPS), and Juliet Whiskey Unaone (to have a better chance at causing flooding and dealing damage via flooding). Players can also choose to equip the Dragon Flag for faster commander (re)training.
