Description
Hornet serves as an Eagle Union aircraft carrier, CV-8, a Yorktown-class sister to Yorktown and Enterprise. She presents with long blonde hair in twintails, green eyes, and wears a black bikini top, short shorts, and black thigh-high stockings. Her attire includes fingerless elbow gloves featuring yellow stripes and a distinctive black cowboy hat with a yellow underside and belt. A black cape marked "CV-8" and her name completes her outfit. Her rigging incorporates a flight deck displaying two B-25 Mitchell bombers, referencing the Doolittle Raid, and notably lacks the typical island superstructure.
Her combat role centers on air operations, utilizing gear slots optimized for fighters, dive bombers, and torpedo bombers, boasting efficiency ratings between 110% and 125%. Hornet employs the "Doolittle Airstrike" skill, offering a 30%-60% chance to launch an unstoppable additional B-25 strike during her airstrike. Her "Assault Carrier" skill provides a 15%-25% chance to double her damage output for 10 seconds upon launching an airstrike, highlighting her historical role as the first fleet carrier to deploy heavy land-based bombers.
Personality-wise, Hornet radiates cheerfulness and fearlessness, eagerly tackling difficult missions. She exhibits strong loyalty to comrades, prioritizing their protection even at personal risk. Her dialogue often reflects her history, referring to the Doolittle Raid as a "delivery" and acknowledging her final battle at the Santa Cruz Islands, where the cruiser Northampton attempted to tow her after severe damage. Defeated, she acknowledges her successor, USS Hornet (CV-12).
Her history includes launching the Doolittle Raid, participating in the Battle of Midway and the Solomon Islands campaign. She sustained irreparable damage during the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands from torpedoes and dive bombers, leading to her abandonment and sinking by Japanese destroyers. She earned four service stars and a citation for the Doolittle Raid. Alternate versions include "Hornet META" and "Hornet II," representing an Essex-class carrier. Her relationships include a noted bond with Northampton, who rescued her survivors.
