In order to maximize your resource gathering, having at least 12 Daihatsus or four per expedition fleet is preferred. I would argue that you want to have more than that.

If you don't have 2-3 Type 89 Medium Tank &amp; Landing Force, then you are going to want to use 2-3 Daihatsus to upgrade to those.

If you don't have 2-3 KaMi Amphibious Tanks, then you are going to want to use 1-2 Daihatsus to upgrade to those (there is one tank available via a quest-chain)

Both of these are important for anti-installation purposes.

For resource-gain, DevSquad74 is spot on, but Toku Daihatsu are better. Unfortunately, these can only be made through Akashi and cost 4 Daihatsu to convert from a +10 Daihatsu to a Toku Daihatsu.

So, for strong resource gain, you are going to want 4 Toku Daihatsu per fleet.

Edit:

Just for number-crunching sake, you are going to want the following amounts of Daihatsu:

- 3-5 Daihatsu to upgrade for the Anti-Installation gears (if you don't already have them)

- 11 Daihatsu for your expedition fleet (12 if you do not have Kinu Kai Ni).

Then, for each Daihatsu you turn into a Toku Daihatsu, you will need to spend 4 more Daihatsu, which means that you are going to want to have total of 20 Daihatsu on-hand (or over time) per fleet (1 to upgrade + 4 to convert = 5 x 4 per fleet = 20), for a grand total of 60 Daihatsu (assuming you don't have Kinu K2).

...and then, assuming you think you're done, there is upgrading each Toku Daihatsu to +10, it costs a Daihatsu to upgrade each point pst +6, meaning that to reach +10, you will need to use another 4 Daihatsu.

...so yeah, if you are going down the rabbit hole of maximum resource gain per expedition, there is no such thing as 'too many Daihatsus', and every single one of these things is a more than welcome addition. I was using 12 Daihatsu as a minimum without converting to Toku Daihatsu. Having more than 12 Daihatsu would make it much easier especially if you want to convert to T89 Tankhatsu or Toku Daihatsu. I definately agree converting and upgrading Toku Daihatsu is rather very expensive investment and more towards long term benefit. Wow, thanks! That's a lot of work gathering all that information, I really appreciate it! A casual player like me with just one TankHatsu and one Ka-Mi could really need some more (even though I often send just two fleets to expedition). It depends on the other rewards of a quest, but rocket dev mats aren't that important (I got two from event) and T96 LB bombers are buildable. However, screws are always rare for me, so getting another anti-land-base boat will take some time.
