Unryū class aircraft carrier
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Unryū class of aircraft carriers (雲龍 級) were World War II Japanese aircraft carriers. They were intended for strikes against US convoys. None ever deployed operationally. Many were incomplete at the end of the war; the survivors and hulks were scrapped postwar.
