Commissioned in 1928, she featured a distinctive three-level flight deck design, later rebuilt into a full-length deck during a 1930s modernization that greatly improved her combat capabilities. By the time of World War II, Japanese Kaga was one of Japanese’s most powerful carriers. She played a central role in early Japanese victories, including the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941 and operations across Southeast Asia and the Pacific. Her air group contributed significantly to Japanese’s rapid expansion during the first year of the war. Japanese Kaga met her end at the Battle of Midway in June 1942. Struck by multiple bombs from U.S. Navy dive bombers, she suffered catastrophic fires and explosions and was scuttled later that day. Her loss marked a turning point in the Pacific War.
