Description

Taiho-Kai (Discontinued

Taihō-Kai refers to an improved or follow-on concept associated with Japan’s Taihō aircraft-carrier design. The historical Taihō entered service in 1944 but was lost during the Battle of the Philippine Sea. The subject belongs to Japan’s intended expansion and refinement of carrier construction, with exact changes dependent on the particular design interpretation represented by the model.

Improved Taiho designs were intended to develop Japan’s armored-deck carrier concept further.

The improved carrier program remained unrealized as Japan’s shipbuilding resources faced wartime losses and competing demands. An armored flight deck and revised aviation arrangements were intended to improve survivability and handling, but these projected improvements never gained an operational record of their own.

I have added this to my 1940 Global as a option for Japan to pair up with the Yamamoto Battleship and create a super fleet.

Nice but...

Firstly, I should say that the piece is nicely designed. It has a nice thematic look, and fits within the context of the game. Please note though that these are 3D printed rather than molded, so the coloring and texture are a little off in comparison to the other pieces, but are still nicely matched. Personally I am fine with that, but others may be unhappy at this. Also, as of this writing, there is no real function for them other than decoration. HBG does intend to create rules for them at a later time so these might be worth getting in preperation for that time.
