About Japanese Cruiser Ibuki
The Japanese cruiser Ibuki was a heavy cruiser built for the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II. The lead ship of her class of two ships, she was ordered to be converted into a light aircraft carrier in 1943 before completion to help replace the aircraft carriers sunk during the Battle of Midway in mid-1942.
