Engine Boost Data

As the name implies, this consumable enhances a ship's engine performance. It is found on all destroyers, but it can be swapped out for other consumables such as Defensive AA Fire  on some late-hull versions of American destroyers and high-tier Russian destroyers; it is also available to French cruisers at Tier VI and up.

While Engine Boost is active, the ship's top speed is increased by the listed percentage. For example, a +8% boost on a ship with a 35 knot top speed can reach 37.8 knots. Also importantly, it increases the ship's acceleration by a larger but unlisted percentage. Combined, these can help chase down or escape enemies, enhance the ship's ability to dodge incoming fire, or save some precious seconds when repositioning to a new front.

Note that Engine Boost will not work if a ship's engine module is disabled (even if the commander has the Last Stand skill).

A cosmetic effect of thicker engine smoke will also appear during the duration of the consumable, however Engine Boost has no impact on a ship's concealment value.
