Description
[Machine Translation] After the London Conference on Disarmament Issues, Isoroku Yamamoto wanted to take this opportunity to create a new Imperial Japanese Navy. That is, he wanted to create a fleet that did not rely on battleships, but rather on aircraft carriers and their aircraft. Yamamoto planned to make the Fuso and the Yamashiro, which were to be scrapped under the Treaty of Disarmament, into "launch carriers" that could launch aircraft directly from their hangars, rather than mere aircraft carriers. In addition, the "Shirai" fighter-bomber was ordered to be built as a new ship-borne aircraft. Then, in 1940, Japan ordered the launch carrier "Genryu" to be built. In 1940, Japan became a navy unparalleled in the world with 14 aircraft carriers, including the launch carriers "Genryu" and "Kyoryu". In 1941, war with the U.S. became inevitable. Yamamoto and his "Gunwolf Task Force" sailed to occupy Hawaii.
