Product description ※Please note that product information is not in full comprehensive meaning because of the machine translation.

■ As with the sister ship Chitose, Chiyoda was initially completed in 1938 as a seaplane carrier with consideration for conversion into an aircraft carrier.
After that, only Chiyoda was converted into a A-target carrier. As four aircraft carriers were lost in the Battle of Midway in 1942, it was finally decided to convert both ships into aircraft carriers, and it was completed as a light aircraft carrier with 30 aircraft in December of the following year.
After the conversion of the aircraft carrier, Chiyoda was engaged in escorting the fleet. After participating in the Battle of Mariana in June of the following year, Chiyoda participated in the Battle of Leite in October of the following year, Chiyoda was bombarded by US cruiser forces and sank with high-angle guns.
