Kyokudai Kubo "Yamato" 1 (Victory Novels)

[Machine Translation] The withdrawal from the London Conference on Disarmament led to a reorganization of fleet forces under the leadership of Commander-in-Chief Isoroku Yamamoto.... The result was a fearless reform that placed aircraft on all surface vessels, in what could be called an "air-first" policy. While other countries were still mired in the big-boat, big-artillery policy, Japan secretly promoted high-speed maneuvering of the Combined Fleet to destroy the British and French forces in Southeast Asia and to gain control of the East Indian Ocean, while concealing its true strength. As war tensions rise further, a surprise attack by U.S. forces off the coast of the Marianas, where both countries are deployed, finally leads to the outbreak of a war between the U.S. and Japan. The Imperial Navy's trump card, the YAMATO, an extremely large aircraft carrier that has been drastically redesigned from the battleship, is about to be unleashed! A new series with the power of a superdreadnought!
