"Hyuga", the largest escort vessel of Japan’s Maritime Self-Defense
Force fleet, was launched in Yokohama, August 23. Dubbed "helicopter
carrier", the ship can carry 11 helicopters and have four helicopters
taking off or landing at the same time. It will go into formal service
in 2009 and become a major vessel of the Japanese forces.

I had a gentleman point out this link with decent design and photos,
rather than that crappy Chinese page:

And no, its not an ac carrier, it is an LPH (or whatever HMS Ocean is too).

Hehe, good to see you around!
Settled indeed it is e. No more space problems. Broken PC disk still
under recovery though. Should do some modeling. Looks like no-one
wanted to swap, so I'm gonna buy a Monogram Kingfisher floatplane
(Master series or whatever it was with photo-etch and so on), need to
hammer that one together before October for our club meeting. Good fun
ahead. You take care too!
