What-If hybrid Yamato-class Battleship-Carrier
I had a scenario pop into my head recently. What if Japan rushed the order of the 4th Yamato class battleship, Warship Number 111, instead of chopping it up? Though, instead of converting it to a carrier like they did with the Shinano, they opted for a BB/CV hybrid like the Ise? I have an old 1/700 IJN Yamato that broke in several areas that I was contemplating reworking it to a conversion similar to this.
