Yamashio Maru-class escort carrier : ウィキペディア英語版 | Yamashio Maru-class escort carrier
The ''Yamashio Maru'' class ((日本語:山汐丸)) consisted of a pair of auxiliary escort carriers operated by the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II. They were converted from tankers. Only the name ship was completed during the war and she was sunk by American aircraft before she could be used. ==Construction== In 1944, the Japanese Army, which had already converted two passenger liners into combined assault ship and aircraft carriers, decided to acquire its own escort carriers to provide aerial anti-submarine cover for troop convoys. It therefore chartered two partly built Type 2TL Tankers, ''Yamashio Maru'' and ''Chigusa Maru'', for conversion to auxiliary escort carriers.〔Gardiner and Chesneau, p. 213〕 The conversion was extremely simple, with a -long flush flight deck added. There was no hangar, the ship's eight Ki-76s being stored on deck. Defensive armament consisted of sixteen 25 mm anti-aircraft guns, with a depth charge projector forward.〔Chesneau, p. 186〕
