Planes with different fuel values in switch modes, e.g. kamikaze, don't update it during deployment phase after switching. It's only updated when you put a plane into an airfield/carrier hangar and switch there.
This also affects other switch-modes, like to torpedo/tactical bombing.
Possibly also related to the other bug with air-transported infantry units with fuel values.

Personally, I can't understand your obsession with the whole "Kamikaze" spec, to be honest...

I think... in all the years I've played this game... at the very most... I did take this spec two times, maybe. Just to see what it actually does. But... intentionally self-destroying my own units? Are you crazy?

I never knew that planes in "Kamikaze-mode" have different fuel values than "regular" ones.

Yeah, but with stock units, those have identical fuel values.
