Capital Battleship to also receive Kai Ni AFTER Spring 2017 Event http://wgforum.kr/kancolle_freeboard/7504744

1. 2017 Spring event has 5 maps. 3 maps in the Main operation and 2 maps in the Extra operation.

2. A New Foreign battleship. (She does not wear glasses :v )

3. A New Ship whose name originates from "North". (Unconfirmed if IJN Ship or a Foreign Ship)

4. Type 1 fighter (Nakajima Ki-43 Hayabusa) will be implemented. It will be released as a Monthly Top Ranking Reward first, then will be released in the Spring event for Medium-Difficulty. You may also be able to obtain the Type 1 fighter with special squadron if you clear the Event Map on Hard mode.

5. A Capital Battleship will be receiving her Kai Ni AFTER the Spring 2017 Event.

6. The implementation of Kaibokan (Also known as coastal defense ship), a ship class that is smaller than destroyers. (Doesn't seem to be Spring 2017 Event release however?)

regarding Kaibokans: as there is no equivalent US hull classification for their kind, but have the same tasks assigned to destroyer escorts, should we contemplate on using "DE" as kaibokan abbreviation in the wiki? (I'm open to suggestions on using "PF" or "FF")

regarding the (possibly) Russian BB: it's most likely Petropavlovsk due to the hints regarding her name, and not her sister and class nameship Gangut as some might possibly speculate (who was renamed Oktyabrskaya Revolutsya, and hence has "Revolution" in her name)
