A TTK once said, "Don't feel good about putting that red gun and seaplane on Maya, it's just keeping her from reaching her plane-shredding potential." It's all or nothing in getting that special AACI, so full AACI all the way, all day everyday.

The only exception I've found to this (and this might be blasphemy in itself...) is on low-risk maps where enemy air power isn't that strong. Mixed Maya + full AACI Akizuki still shreds planes decently on light-medium AA duty.

Anything that calls for heavier-duty AACI, though, say when Tanaka is getting sadistic on a final EX op? Full AACI on the both of them.
