Amagi-class battlecruiser : ウィキペディア英語版 | Amagi-class battlecruiser
The was a series of four battlecruisers planned for the Imperial Japanese Navy as part of the so-called Eight-eight fleet. The ships were to be named ''Amagi'', , ''Atago'', and ''Takao'' (initially named ''Ashitaka''),〔Daiji Katagiri (1988), p. 93〕 after the mountains Amagi, Akagi, Atago, and Takao.〔''Conway's All the World's Fighting Ships'' (p. 235) states that ''Takao'' was named for the town of Takao, Formosa, and some sources repeat this. However, the name ''Takao'' for Japanese warships predated the renaming of the town, and Lacroix (p. 122) states that the name was simply re-used for the battlecruiser.〕 The ''Amagi'' design was essentially a lengthened version of the battleship, but with a thinner armored belt and deck and a modified secondary battery arrangement.〔Gardiner and Gray (1984), p. 235〕 Limitations imposed by the 1922 Washington Naval Treaty prevented the class from being completed as designed. However, the treaty had a limited allowance for hulls already under construction to be converted into aircraft carriers. ''Amagi'' and ''Akagi'' were both intended for conversion, but an earthquake damaged the hull of ''Amagi'' so extensively that the ship was scrapped. ''Akagi'' was reconstructed as an aircraft carrier and served with distinction as part of the ''Kido Butai'' during the Second World War, participating in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor before being sunk at the Battle of Midway. ==Design==
