About the IJN Amagi
The Amagi was an Unryu-class aircraft carrier commissioned in August 1944 during the critical final stages of the Pacific War. As part of Japan's emergency carrier construction program, she represented the Imperial Japanese Navy's efforts to rebuild carrier strength after devastating losses at Midway and the Philippine Sea. The Amagi featured improved anti-aircraft armament and incorporated lessons learned from earlier carrier operations.
