I know each aircraft carrier nation has its quirks, but I’m curious about the specifics. For example, I heard that the Japanese carriers are known for their sea mines. Can anyone break down what each nation is known for regarding their carriers?

About those IJN sea mines, you’ll find them on the Mir Korablei, which is a reconstituted line of Taihou. Just not on the WG yet.
US carriers are super flexible, kinda like the Montana battleship. The British ones usually excel at farming battleships, like the Conqueror. The Japanese have stealthy torpedo bombers that can bypass healing, while the Germans boast fast planes with armored hulls. The Soviets have one powerful strike but their planes are slow.
Honestly, all of them are just known for ruining the game in one way or another…
So, here’s the lowdown:
– **Essex**: Great smokes and tactical squadrons, easily one of the best carriers out there.
– **Midway**: Very versatile and a solid pick for learning drops thanks to its full HE setup.
– **Nakhimov**: Packs a punch with lots of planes per drop, plus it has high speed for takeoff.
– **Hakuryu**: Just as versatile as the Midway, making it user-friendly for new players.
– **Richthofen**: It’s all about the AP with this one; not particularly focused on anything else.
– **Audacious**: Honestly, I’m questioning why you’d want to choose this one, it could mess up your team’s strategy pretty bad.
Thanks for breaking it down! This really helps.
In a nutshell:
– The **USN** carriers generally have solid bombs,
– **IJN** carriers are best known for their awesome torpedoes,
– The **RN** does well with tough aircraft,
– And the **Germans** are all about speed for their planes.
That’s a bummer to hear about the Royal Navy carriers… Would love to see a Supermarine Spitfire in my port.
