Ise is a Tier VI Japanese premium hybrid battleship that combines traditional naval artillery with limited aircraft strike capability.
Based on the historical Ise-class battleship conversion, it represents a unique concept where part of the ship’s rear turret layout was replaced with a flight deck.
Ise offers a hybrid gameplay experience. It can engage enemies with battleship guns while also launching torpedo bomber squadrons to pressure targets at range. This dual-role design makes it one of the most unusual ships at its tier.

Tips to Play Ise
Ise performs best as a support battleship rather than a frontline brawler. Use its aircraft to scout enemy positions and pressure ships that are difficult to reach with main guns.
Launch torpedo bombers to attack battleships or slow cruisers while positioning the ship for artillery strikes. Combining both attack methods can overwhelm enemies.
Avoid overcommitting early in the match. While Ise has decent survivability, it lacks the raw firepower of some other battleships at its tier.
Late in the match, its hybrid mechanics become extremely useful. Aircraft can chase down retreating ships or finish off low-health targets while the main guns continue supporting allies.
