And you need a pretty big number for some real effect against large BETA hordes especially if there are lasers in the area to defend against shell bombardment. That's one area where the anime's episode 2 dropped the ball, they failed to demonstrate the lasers' effective anti-artillery defense which was made pretty clear at several points in game.

And this isn't even remotely Yuuya Bridges related anymore.
My point was bring naval level firepower closer to the frontlines with anime's context.


As for Yuuya Bridges...

The context for

Yui: But the Fubuki's no more difficult to control than any other Imperial Japanese TDF
...
Stella: Japanese TSFs don't handle like other ones.

quotes was made within the anime's context e.g. the Defence of Kyoto, Type-82/F-4J Kai Zuikaku, Type-97 Fubuki , Type-94 Shiranui (Mk.1-C).

The focus is with the current Japanese TSFs as shown in EP02 e.g. Type-97 Fubuki , Type-94 Shiranui (Mk.1-C).

The anime is still working on the upgrades for Type-94 Shiranui.
