IJN Junyo Hiyo class

Description
IJN Junyo "peregrine falcon"she and her sister Hiyo "flying hawk" was cruise linear that converted into a carrier after the IJN purchasing of the 2 hull, she was known to participate the battle of santa cruz 1942 without her sister, in 1944 another major battle came along with her sister in the battle of mariana turkey shoot.

She, hiyo, shokaku,zuikaku,taiho and zuiho were sent in that battle, she was fortunate to survive but her sister was torpedoed by a TBF avenger and was later sunk, after this battle she was later used as an AA Barrage but after ww2 in 1945 she was sitting in pain with her hull damaged, in 1947 she was later scrapped after her damage was too much to repair and participate with IJN Kisaragi (unryu class)IJN Hosho and the rest available japanese ship to bring back the japanese soilder and civilian from korea back to homeland japan.

She and her sister were the japanese version of USS Wasp and her class were similar to the wasp class as they both were medium carrier and there design was later imbeded to later carrier design with wasp design for essex and hiyo design for taiho.

This build took a while but i hope you like it, yes its very top heavy but thats because i use metal, another is this is my VERY FIRST build that i officialy built on purpose, thip isnt fully accurate as the deck does look a bit wide another is that island isnt hanging on starboard more then it, however stuff like that was too late to fix in later development, i hope you like this ship as i am planning to make different more ships.

Ironic that this came up as i started to build my own CVL based of Junyo, looks good! You gonna put any planes on it? My problem is that i can only get about 9 planes on mine, my planes are too damn bulky
