User:Tsubakura/Sandbox/Secret Archives/ASW Accuracy Bonus

Developers tweet has reported that the equipment will give bonus accuracy against enemy submarines. Further verification has been performed on 検証 here.

KenWWK's Analysis
The first analysis was performed by KenWWK.
 * The first sample is tested with a +  setup. With a sample size of 511, it has a recorded hit rate of 90.41%
 * The second sample is tested with a +  setup. The sample size is 502, recording a hit rate of 96.41%

This confirms the following thing:
 * The accuracy bonus seems to only work for Sonars, notably as the sample with a Depth Charge instead has a lower recorded hit rate.

But it also brings up the following:
 * What is the exact accuracy boost you gain from Sonars? Does using different Sonars make any differences? This is currently hard to tell, due to 97% being the accuracy soft-cap.
 * This test has only confirmed DDs so far. It is safe to assume CL gain the same bonus, but what about AO and AV?

kankenRJ's Analysis
The Ryuujou guy also did some tests, using a tranport (I assume he means AO with this?) and AV instead, with all of them under red morale. The results are rather interesting. The following interesting points can be observed:
 * The is shown to give a higher accuracy bonus compared to the . This means that bonuses are different, depending on what kind of Sonar you use.
 * A gives around +1% more hit rate than the . If we count both the  and  stats together of both equipment, you will get 12 vs 13. This is a strong sign of  stat being the cause of the increased hit rate.
 * As this test was done using transports and AV, this is also a strong confirmation that the bonus applies to any ship capable of equipping Sonars.

But then, the following question remains:
 * If the assumption is that each of a Sonar increases the hit rate by +1%, would it be +2% for each Sonar stat under normal morale?
 * Does this bonus also apply to, being the only exception among the CVLs in the game?
 * Does Large Sonars grant the same bonuses as the regular sonars?
