Come to think of it this aircraft carrier, aircraft destroyer, whatever, probably doesn't bother the chinese all that much since they'll have proper CATOBAR carriers shortly that carry real jets which can actually fly fast and far with weapons on them, unlike the ****ty carriers basically everyone but the US and France have.Comment

Anyway. That's just a model for Japan's aircraft carrier carrier. It's purely defensive to help America transport its aircraft carriers.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect.

From looking at the flight deck, I imagine that they gave some consideration to the STVOL F-35B when they designed it. I would imagine that it could be configured to have 15-20 of them operating on that ship."I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic.

Also just did a little quick research....
The previous Izumo lead attacks against the Russians at Vladivostok in the Russo-Japanese War and was the Flagship during the Japanese invasion of China in the second Sino-Japanese War. It was also the ship that opened fire on the USS Wake in Shanghai in the first post Pearl Harbor action of WWII.
