Another tip is to put your spotter ships on do not engage and they will not get themselves into a fight as soon as they spot something they will just follow a fleet around until your strike force gets there.

Cruiser submarines are imo superior to CLs in spotting, if you can access them. While not as capable of max spotting, they will almost never be found and sunk, unlike cruisers. It's also worth licencing them from someone who can make them, France, Germany, Japan etc

Incredible Youtube channel for HOI4 in depth explanations. Now, I won't say I truly understand Navy, but sinking the Royal Navy as Germany with a surface fleet of roughly 45-50 ship, make me feel that I definitly understood something.

Can we get a navy Japan build video? Like the types of fleet setup you need and how you deploy and use each type properly ?

[p_rushton]

That carrier clean up trick is very cool

[lalad]

Amazing video, helped me demystifying navy

[olivert]

God I love this channel, I'm finally gonna be good at navy haha

[emregungor]

Great guide as always! I would be so happy if you made a video about how as Italy beat UK navy. I recently try to learn about navy in HOI4 and try it with Italy, but it seems impossible!

[homey]

Can you make a navy build video. Like carrier fleet, destroyer fleet, light attack fleet etc.

[Idonotwantahandle]

Question: I am playing the vanilla base HoI4 game, is the trade route restriction in area GUI window on the bottom left (5:05) part of some expansion pack? (I don't have these options)

[FireDragon]

Very interesting is the fact that aviation on the aircraft carrier can operate with maximum efficiency in the entire maritime area regardless of the aircraft's range. I want to ask if it is true that for the destruction of submarines a carrier cas is better than a carrier nav? Thank you 👍

[ricardoblikman]

Where in the UI can you see where a fleet is based? do you need to manual rebase if you want to change it I thought HOI 4 would automatically rebase because capturing a new naval base increases the range automatically?

[KaizerKlash]

Could you make a video covering naval patrol, specifically heavy naval patrol airframes, since when I use them they seem useful but I'm not certain if that is true

[Uberskull]

Regarding upgrading ships, is there a way to quickly assign all harbors being used to build ships to upgrade ships you put in your queue?

[arthursandomine]

I know it's easy and effective but is there someone else that think death stacking is kind of boring and cheesy?

And this is not a critique against the video btw

[Marmamartha]

Im more interested in knowing how many ships you need on spotting. I usually go for 6 fast destroyers, but maybe already 3 is enough>?

[DefaultProphet]

TIL that you can see which trade routes are being raided. I have like 2000 hours in the game wtf.
