Player Opinion

Performance

Warning. The data presented in the AA Defense sidebar section may be incorrect.

Max Immelmann is a German carrier that shares a hull with Manfred von Richthofen. She specializes in providing quick support owing to her fast plane speeds; however, this comes at the cost of low alpha strikes. As such, she focuses on dealing with damage over time with fires and floods. To compensate for her fragile planes, she boasts a large hanger size, fast aircraft regeneration, and an option for long range attacks that help mitigate anti-aircraft fire.

FW 190G8 Torpedo Bombers

Immelmann’s torpedo bombers are specialized towards non-maneuverable targets such as battleships and some cruisers. Each squadron consists of 12 aircraft with a strike consisting of 4 planes launching 1 torpedo each. The torpedoes are slow, have a low alpha strike and flood chance, and have a long arming time. As such, it is necessary to catch hostile ships in a crossfire as landing all 4 torpedoes can deal a decent amount of damage. This squadron comes with an in-flight repair consumable that allows for increased survivability against anti-aircraft fire.

TA 152C-1/R14 Skip Bombers

Immelmann's skip bombers are effective against all surface ship classes. The extremely fast speed of these planes allows for quick flanks and strikes across the map. Each squadron consists of 12 planes with a strike consisting of 4 planes that drop 1 high-explosive bomb each. The bombs can penetrate 68mm of armor and have a high fire chance. Additionally, they can be launched a long distance away from the target allowing the planes to mitigate or even bypass some ships antiaircraft fire.

Pros:

Strong secondary guns
Very fast plane speed
Quick plane regeneration
Large Plane reserve
Decent hull protection for an Aircraft Carrier

Cons:

50mm deck
Only two plane types
Small amount of plane health
Weak damage from strikes against capital ships
Strikes must be perpendicular to be effective

As a Tier X and a premium ship, Max Immelmann has no module upgrades to research.

Note: Hidden Menace states that your planes reach safe altitude at 50% lower height which is not true because your planes are still vulnerable to flak, therefore the skill is bugged and not recommended.

Signals

Note: Carriers burn at 1% health per a second while all other ships burn at 0.3% a second. So even though Carriers burn for only 5 seconds for each fire, if caught off of DCP, multiple fires can be set over and over again making a carrier lose more health to fires than any surface ship within a short duration. Also, Tier X carriers have tier 6 fire reduction coefficient which makes them 30% more likely to be caught on fire than Tier X surface ships.
