Japanese aircraft carrier Ryuho



The Ryuho was a Japanese naval vessel which started life as the submarine depot ship Taigei, and was taken out of service in December 1941 for conversion into a light aircraft carrier. During conversion at Yokosuka, the Ryuho gained the distinction of being the only major warship damaged in the Doolittle Raid on April 18 1942.
