Kaga — Japanese special premium Tier VIII aircraft сarrier.
Until the early 1940s, she was one of the biggest aircraft carriers of the Imperial Japanese Navy. Initially laid down as a battleship, she was redesigned during construction to become a carrier. The ship had good armor protection for her type, carried quite numerous air group and powerful secondary battery guns.
Kaga first went on sale on 2 June 2017 on the EU servers, and on 5 June 2017 on the NA servers.
