現在「艦これ」運営鎮守府では、来週より展開予定の夏イベ：期間限定海域【反撃！第二次SN作戦】の開発実装を両舷一杯で進めています. 現在複数の新艦娘の実装と共に、「艦載機」関連の新システムの実装を進めています. 練成と運用によっては強力な航空打撃力の発揮も可能となる予定です！

The new system is Aircraft-Related. "A strong aviation striking force" is achieveable by high skill level and arrangement.

I believe this means the firepower of carrier aircrafts are finally determined by the level of the carrier. And probably bomber-torpedo bomber combos too.
