WellDone on carrier economy:
The current economic situation with the carriers is the following – carriers earn on as much as other classes on average. This is true both for good and bad players. What carriers currently need is a higher variance of earnings. In other words, other ship types more frequently have games that earn significantly higher or significantly lower than their overall average. The myth of carriers poor earnings owes to the fact that players tend to remember games with high earnings, but oversee the lack of games with low earnings. Increasing the variance of earnings is not an easy task for game developers, but we shall succeed in a few patches.

Best and worst ships in 0.6.0 based on a large sample of RU server statistics.
Carriers: With few exceptions, the carriers are usually among top three of their tier by damage, kills and win rate. This assessment takes into account players skills. The conjecture that carrier statistics on higher tiers will become worse when average and bad players reached them turned out false.
The IJN carriers are better than USN carriers on every tier. Worst ships are Bogue and Independence.

Best ships: Umikaze, V-25.
Tier 3:
König Albert surpassed Bogatyr and Nassau mentioned in previous evaluations.
