Player Opinion
Performance
Pros:
- Large reserve of planes for its tier at 48 compared to Independence at 37.
- 5 squadrons of planes, and at least 1 fighter squadron, in any of the upgraded loadouts.
- Low concealment.
- Relatively maneuverable, better than its predecessor Zuiho.
- Strike loadout will deal massive damage to enemy ships, similar to Zuiho.
- Planes outperform Independence's in almost every aspect - speed, loadout time and damage per minute.
- 127mm dual-purpose guns can be boosted by AA skills, particularly Manual Fire Control for AA Armament.
Cons:
- Poor armor protection and large size make her prone to taking large hits and HE damage.
- Air superiority loadout is very slightly inferior to that of Independence's, since its fighters have 170 hitpoints lower and are 2 knots slower, though not significant.
- AA is weaker than her counterpart Independence.
- Stock flight control system (1-1-2) fails in terms of either dealing damage to enemy ships if not played carefully or enemy aircraft, frequently runs out of planes.
Research
This is a suggested upgrade path:
- Type 6 Mod. 2 (Flight Control Mod)
- Mitsubishi A6M2 fighters
- Aichi D3A1 dive bombers
- Free XP the B hull, get the C hull for additional AA protection and rudder shift.
Optimal Configuration
Upgrades
As a carrier at Tier VI with four upgrade slots (slots 1, 2, 4, and 5), 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), Damage Control System Modification 1, and Damage Control System Mod. 2.
Commander Skills
Ryujo uses the standard IJN CV captain skill setup. Emphasis should be on skills that boost fighter and bomber effectiveness and AA protection. Aircraft Servicing Expert, Torpedo Acceleration, and Air Supremacy are "must have" skills. Dogfighting Expert is also useful if Ryujo faces a higher tier carrier, and the bonus to ammunition allows her fighters to remain airborne longer before returning to rearm.
Torpedo Armament Expertise can be taken as well, however the preparation time of torpedo bombers is already short at 18 seconds, which is already an advantage over Independence's torpedo bombers at 32 seconds.
For AA defense, Ryujo has large-caliber 127mm guns that benefit greatly from Manual Fire Control for AA Armament. Basic Firing Training is also a good choice to boost all AA guns' DPS by 20%. While Ryujo's AA DPS output is not sufficient to wipe out entire squadrons, it can knock out a few planes and, in combination with maneuvering, can help avoid taking serious damage.
Evasive Maneuvers is not recommended because it only affects bombers that have dropped their payload and are returning to the carrier.
Any skills that are related to an enemy vessel firing on your carrier are not useful, as the cost-benefit of investing in survivability skills is not worth the minimal benefit they offer. Ryujo has a low HP pool and is large and unarmored, and will not survive an attack by any ship larger than a destroyer. Ryujo captains must position their ship near friendlies and far back from the enemy fleet. Concealment Expert may be taken to further reduce detection range if the captain so desires.

Consumables
As a carrier at Tier VI, Ryujo has access to only Damage Control Party.
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 can equip Ryujo with Type 16 camouflage that lowers her detection radius, reduces the accuracy of incoming shells, and increases the amount of experience she earns.
Signals
As a carrier, Ryujo 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), and, for the last two / pair, November Echo Setteseven (for better bomber self-defense against fighters) and Juliet Whiskey Unaone (to have a better chance at causing flooding and dealing damage via flooding). However, the last two recommended signal flags are not highly recommended if the player wishes to conserve the signal for later tiers.Gallery
Historical Info
Ryūjō (Japanese: 龍驤 "prancing dragon") was a light aircraft carrier built for the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) during the early 1930s. Small and lightly built in an attempt to exploit a loophole in the Washington Naval Treaty of 1922, she proved to be top-heavy and only marginally stable and was back in the shipyard for modifications to address those issues within a year of completion. With her stability improved, Ryūjō returned to service and was employed in operations during the Second Sino-Japanese War. During World War II, she provided air support for operations in the Philippines, Malaya, and the Dutch East Indies, where her aircraft participated in the Second Battle of the Java Sea. During the Indian Ocean raid in April 1942, the carrier attacked British merchant shipping with both her guns and her aircraft. Ryūjō next participated in the Battle of the Aleutian Islands in June. She was sunk by American carrier aircraft at the Battle of the Eastern Solomons on 24 August 1942.
Historical Inaccuracies
- The blue fuselage stripes on the A6M2 denotes an aircraft from the carrier Hiryu; Ryujo’s fighters wore a yellow stripe.
- The red fuselage stripe on the D3A1 and B5N2 denotes aircraft from the carrier Akagi. The yellow tail stripes on the latter aircraft represent the carrier group leader. "AI-301" belonged to Mitsuo Fuchida.
