About Hiryuu (Blue Oath)

Also known as: 飛龍(ブルーオース)

Blue Oath's version of the Japanese aircraft carrier Hiryuu.

History

In real life, she was conceived as an improved Souryuu (Blue Oath) design to correct the seakeeping issues of the latter. Her island was located on the port side, one of the only two carriers in history (alongside Akagi (Blue Oath)) with that configuration.

Her aviators were primarily responsible for the sinking of Arizona (Blue Oath) in Pearl Harbor.

In the Battle Of Midway, she was the only one out of four spared the onslaught of the American dive bombers in the morning strike, trailing them on the way to the US carriers, where her aviators crippled Yorktown (Blue Oath). A later afternoon strike finally put her out of action, and she was later scuttled with her Carrier Division commander Yamaguchi Tamon (Real Life) choosing to go down with her.
