List of ships required by quests and expeditions

Ships Required for Quests

These are the total numbers of ships required to complete every quest in the game by type. Note that some quests require a subset of all the ships they specify; for example, A50 requires that you have five of the six total ships specified in your fleet. With careful planning, this behavior can be utilized to reduce the total number of ships required by keeping the ones needed for the highest amount of quests; the optimial value and the suboptimal value are included below. Remodels are not counted as a new ship, as they do not take another ship slot in the game.

The total number of ships required by type:

• Destroyers (DD): 54 - 56
• Light Cruisers (CL(T)): 17 - 18
• Heavy Cruisers & Aviation Cruisers (CA(V)): 17
• Battleships (BB): 10 - 12
• Light Carriers (CVL): 4
• Standard Carriers (CV): 8
• Auxillary Ships (AV, AR, AS): 3

115 - 120 ships are required in total (effectively the total number can be smaller, since you don't need to keep all of them before/after you have access to or have finished associated quests). This number does not take into account wildcard ships needed to fill out

The following tables show exact ships and quests, referring to the Quests page.

• Battleships (BB)
• Standard Carriers (CV)
• Light Carriers (CVL)
• Heavy Cruisers (CA(V))
• Light Cruisers (CL(T))
• Destroyers (DD)
• Axuilliaries (AR, AS)

Ships Required for Expeditions

These are the highest possible number of ships of any type you can send out on expeditions at any time. For example, expedition 37 and 38 require 5 Destroyers, and expedition 13 (or 21) requires 4 Destroyers. Therefore, the maximum number of destroyers you can have out at any time is 5 + 5 + 4 = 14.

The total number of ships required by type:

• Destroyers (DD): 14
• Light Cruisers (CL): 4
• Heavy Cruisers (CA): 4
• Aviation Battleships (BBV): 4
• Seaplane Tenders (AV): 2
• Carriers + Seaplane Tenders (CV/CVL + AV): 7
• Submarines (SS/SSV): 12
• Submarine Tenders (AS): 1

48 ships are required in total. Note that this number can be reduced once you complete certain expeditions that require a high quantity of a ship class and you do not plan to run them again.
