The Shōryū also has a very long flight deck than her elders Taiho & Hakuryu, the length of her flight deck is 333 Meters length and have a wide of 76.8 Meters. This long flight deck comes with a tough armor so it could tank a 500k bomb, not only that. This monster size Carrier also armed with 5 Type 94 ( 460 mm) main guns, the same gun used on the Yamato class Battleships, when the ship was launched first time, it was named Shōryū as also a respect for the IJN Taiho & IJN Hakuryu. This is truly a very devastating weapon, and no wonder why the Ghost Fleet choose Shōryū to be apart of the Special Ops Bosses division after several tests. About her planes, Shōryū mostly using experimental planes such as the Ki - 45 Toryu, D4Y model 3 Suisei and A-7M ( A heavier version of the A6M zero )
