Enterprise — American special premium Tier VIII aircraft сarrier.
A Yorktown-class strike aircraft carrier that combined a number of key characteristics typical for this type of ship: a large air group, superbly assembled take-off and landing equipment that allowed it to launch a large number of squadrons, good speed, and powerful AA defenses.
Enterprise first went on sale on both the NA and EU servers on 30 June 2017.

Camouflage
As a premium ship, Enterprise comes included with Type 10 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, and increases the amount of experience she earns.
Signals
As a carrier, Enterprise is able to mount a maximum of four signal flags simultaneously and has no risk of detonating. India X-Ray (), Victor Lima (), and Juliet Whiskey Unaone () flags are recommended to increase fire and flooding chances. November Echo Setteseven () flags are also recommended to improve the ship’s anti-aircraft defenses and survivability of the strike aircraft squadrons against enemy fighters. Economic flags such as Equal Speed Charlie London (🚫) and Zulu (🚫) can be mounted to increase the ship’s experience and credit gain per battle. Special flags can also be mounted to further increase after-battle rewards.
