Before Aircraft Proficiency I would go for Kai Ni A for all maps where I would need a CV and probably pair her up with either Taihou so I can have two carriers who can attack at Moderate Damage or Kaga for AS.

But now, with the  Aircraft Proficiency  system and how if affects how I personally like to equip and use my carriers (I even bumped Kaga down to second string because of it), I would rather have Kai Ni A for those Tsu-less normal maps while having Kai Ni for those harder Tsu-filled event maps; since Tsu can shoot down even Kaga's largest slot and since I perfer having two slots with bombers instead of one, I would rather have more balance slots and a greater chance of one or both slots surviving to the boss node than to gamble it all on one larger slot and/or risk the second largest slot with its smaller plane count get shot down if I equip that slot with a bomber. I can also get better Fighter Power with Kai Ni's last two slots than Kai Ni A's. Because of this I view Kai Ni A as even less useful for the way I run my fleet than Taihou who is more balanced.

As for Kai Ni A's defensive stats... ''Kai Ni A is heavily armored! *see Taihou get wrecked from full health by Ru-class Flagship*  But Kai Ni A also has high evade!'' *sees turbine equiped Shimakaze & Amatsukaze also get wrecked by Ru-class Flagship*  And don't even get me started on Ru/Wo Flagship Kai or CV-hime... -__-  Re-class? What's that? ;P
