The Washington Naval treaty and all the following ones made the creation of warships quite tricky for many of the Major powers, ships that were only made because of the varius displacment limits that were forced to sacrafice one thin or another, USS Wasp that didn't have adequate protection, KMS Bismarck that never was built to 100% because it would be to heavy, The royal Navy town class that had to be canibilize some components if they wanted to fit anything new on it. Japanese Imperial Navy that tried to make a extrenly light Carrier that failed and resulted in a ship similar to USS Wasp, regia marina that just cheated and created heavier cruisers... and there were even more Projects, prototypes and one off ships that were never completed due to it... but after the appearence of the Kansen and the abolishemnt of the Treaty systems some navies realized somethings... they couldn't Azure/Awaken more ships of a class which led them to their old designs and this sparked the creation of the varius "Priority Research" or "Paper Ships" that sometimes were a lot stronger than other and sometimes just Average...
