Consumables are temporary bonuses that have strong effects with a limited number of uses. There are a variety of consumables; some are only available to certain ships or classes at certain tiers. Choosing the right consumable and knowing when to use it can be the difference between a good game or a great game -- or between winning and losing.

The below information contains base values only. Commander skills and signal flags can change this information. For example, Jack of All Trades decreases reload times of all consumables by 5%. High Alert decreases the reload time for the Damage Control Party consumable by 10%. Superintendent adds one additional charge for each consumable. Finally, the November Foxtrot (-5% reload time on all consumables.) signal flag, earned via the High Caliber achievement, reduces reload time of all consumables by 5%.

Damage Control Party is the basic consumable found on all ships. It instantly repairs all module incapacitations, extinguishes fires, and stops floods.

Spotting Aircraft

Similar to the Catapult Fighter consumable, the Spotting Aircraft consumable launches a plane from the ship's catapult. However, instead of attacking enemy aircraft, the unarmed Spotting Aircraft increases the range of the ship's main battery by 20% and gives an "aerial" perspective when scoping.

Crawling Smoke Generator

With similarities to both the base Smoke Generator and the Exhaust Smoke Generator, the Crawler Smoke Generator deploys smoke to conceal the ship while the ship moves at up to 1/4 speed.

Exhaust Smoke Generator

Found on Italian cruisers, the Exhaust Smoke Generator deploys smoke to conceal the ship. What makes this type of generator unique is that it generates a screen that covers the ship while it moves at up to full speed. Other generators require that the ship move slowly or not at all to stay within the smoke screen.

Main Battery Reload Booster

A Main Battery Reload Booster briefly reduces the reload time of the ship's main battery. The quick reload may allow the battery to fire one or more knockout salvos in a critical situation.

Consumable_PCY017_TorpedoReloader.png

Torpedo Reload Booster

Activating a Torpedo Reload Booster instantly reduces the ship's torpedo reload time. (The Booster will not activate if a mount is not reloading.) A captain can use the Booster immediately after firing all of his torpedoes, then fire a full salvo again in short order. This often surprises an enemy who feels safe after dodging the first salvo.

Hydroacoustic Search

The Hydroacoustic Search consumable increases the ability of the ship to detect other ships and torpedoes.

Surface-search or Surveillance Radar expands the range at which the ship can detect other ships, without regard to line-of-sight obstacles such as smoke, terrain, or weather.

——  Details  ——

Aircraft Carriers

Aircraft carriers have only two consumables, neither of which can be activated by the player. They activate automatically at need.

——  Details  ——  

Carrier Squadrons

These consumables are accessed from carrier-based strike squadrons. They are all player-controlled.

Notes

With Update 0.9.4 all base consumables were removed from the game and all "premium" consumable became free.

As of Update 0.8.0, aircraft can no longer spot enemy torpedoes and players controlling aircraft carriers (not including the strike aircraft) do not have to manually activate their consumables. https://worldofwarships.com/en/news/development/cv8-how-to-play/#aircraft-characteristics.
