Hangar Capacity: 9 aircraft with 81s regeneration.These both "pay" for her increased striking power on successful drops.Īrk Royal's torpedo bombers are excellent. This counter balances the increased casualties that Ark Royal takes from the combination of the fragility of her planes and the slower speed of her aircraft which increases their exposure time. Her regeneration of aircraft is slightly faster than the others when taken as a whole. In terms of hangar capacity, Ark Royal does not have anything odd going on here relative to the other carriers. They drop a ton of ordnance per attack run relative to other bombers at their tier. It's possible to flutter the engine and maintain a near top-boosted speed indefinitely.
They seem to decelerate very slowly when using boost. They are very fragile, having equivalent too or slightly less hit points than Ryujo's planes. These have four characteristics worth noting: Pretty good palette match for 818 Squadron.Īrk Royal uses Swordfish biplanes for both her torpedo bombers and her level bombers. She's fast with a 31 knot top speed and, like all carriers, navigates like a Karen with a broken GPS. Her AA power is weak up close but decent otherwise. These are 113mm in size, fire only once every 5s and only have 18mm of penetration with a 4km range. She has sixteen secondaries in 8x2 mounts with four turrets per side. Her citadel abuts against the exterior of the ship and sits over the waterline beneath her funnel with a maximum of 114mm of protection. Her armour is nothing special with a 19mm deck. There's nothing special about the ship itself. Here's what you need to know about the first live test-version of Ark Royal if you run into her. Stuntman9630 and I did make an interesting discovery this morning about aircraft casualties in 0.8.5 that we're still trying to pin down but I'll talk about that below. I have a few areas of concerns in regards to her performance. Now as a self admitted teaboo, this probably means she's not terrible. So I've played a handful of co-op and random battle games with Ark Royal so far and I'm very much enjoying her. She is still a Work in Progress and any statistics and performance discussed here is subject to change.
