Introduction

Historical Background story ( WW2 real life information ) [ Source : Wikipedia ]

Akagi (Japanese: 赤城, "red castle") was an aircraft carrier built for the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN), named after Mount Akagi in present-day Gunma Prefecture. Though she was laid down as an Amagi-class battlecruiser, Akagi was converted to an aircraft carrier while still under construction to comply with the terms of the Washington Naval Treaty. The ship was rebuilt from 1935 to 1938 with her original three flight decks consolidated into a single enlarged flight deck and an island superstructure. The second Japanese aircraft carrier to enter service, and the first large or "fleet" carrier, Akagi and the related Kaga figured prominently in the development of the IJN's new carrier striking force doctrine that grouped carriers together, concentrating their air power. This doctrine enabled Japan to attain its strategic goals during the early stages of the Pacific War from December 1941 until mid-1942.

Later, Akagi was badly damaged on 4 June 1942 by a United States Navy aircraft attack from USS Enterprise CV - 6 during the Battle of Midway and when it became obvious she could not be saved, she was scuttled by Japanese destroyers to prevent her from falling into enemy hands. The loss of Akagi and three other IJN carriers at Midway was a crucial strategic defeat for Japan and contributed significantly to the Allies' ultimate victory in the Pacific. Her wreck was located in October 2019 by the Research Vessel Petrel.

Combining 2 ways of fighting in one ship sounds difficult, especially for a ship like the Akagi, which is supposed to be an aircraft carrier like the Enteprise or Hiryu. But this give her more function than launching air strikes on her target, her weight is also increased due this new form and even her remodel type make her more heavier but strongger armor.
