The personification of the US Navy (light) aircraft carrier, USS [i]Ranger[/i] (CV-4), in [[Azur Lane]]. Character design by [[Enka (bcat)]], voiced by [[Asakawa Yuu]]. h4. Description h5. Base Art [tn]See post #2930382.[/tn] Ranger has long reddish-[[pink hair]] and [[blue eyes]]. She wears a white [[tank top]] with reddish-[[pink skirt|pink]] [[pleated skirt|pleated]] [[miniskirt]] with a horizontal white stripe around it with "RNGR" on her left, a reference to her real-life pre-war identification marks. She has a [[black jacket]] with [[long sleeves|long]] [[detached sleeves]], and [[black legwear|black]] [[thighhighs]]. In addition, she wears [[pink_gloves|pink]], [[partially fingerless gloves]], [[elbow gloves]] where the index finger is full covered, the middle finger is covered up to the first digit from the knuckle, and the ring and pinkie fingers are uncovered. She also has a [[headset]] with a [[microphone]] on her left side, a [[blue_bag|blue]] [[messenger bag]], and a [[choker]] with an [[anchor]] hanging from the front. She has very [[large breasts]] that sometimes get made bigger in what fanart she gets. Her [[rigging]] is her ship model turned into a large [[crossbow]]-styled launcher. It is about 3/4 of her height, with a [[trigger]] about mid-ship on port-side. Her island superstructure is featured, alongside anti-air batteries, and a [[radar dish]]. She has a [[badge]] on her bag, which is her real life crew's badge. h5. Retrofit Art [tn]See post #2930385[/tn] In her [[retrofit (azur lane)|retrofit]], her outfit gets swapped for white [[front-tie top]], a pair of [[uneven legwear|asymmetrical]] [[tight pants]] where the left leg is wrapped with black leather strips, and a jacket-esque [[cape]]. She sports a new [[flat cap]] with a white top and red beak, and some [[armored boots]]. Her already [[large breasts]] get more emphasize if not an actual increase. Her rigging loses the crossbow aesthetic and moves the trigger and handle aft. h5. Personality and In-game Trivia Ranger takes on a role of a teacher, similar to [[Langley (Azur Lane)|Langley]], treating the Commander as one of her students. She gets easily flustered, stuttering and getting embarrassed in several of her lines, with a number of things suggesting some desire for her students. Her plane loadout is purely dive bombers (like her real-life counterpart). Her skillset is particularly RNG dependent, leading to potentially hilarious damage output. h4. History In real life, [i]Ranger[/i] was the US Navy's first carrier designed and built from scratch, providing valuable training experience to Naval aviators for the likelihood of war. In World War II, she primarily saw combat in the Atlantic and Mediterranean theaters as her comparatively slow speed, minimal armor, and limited plane capacity prevented her from seeing service in the Pacific other than training duties from 1944 onward. She was decommissioned in 1946 and sold for scrap a year later. h4. Related In-Game Ship * [[Langley (Azur Lane)]] h4.
