Midway — American Legendary Tier Aircraft Carrier.

The largest U.S. Navy warship laid down during World War II. The huge size of this aircraft carrier allowed her to carry the largest air group compared to her contemporary counterparts. Excellent torpedo protection, well-armored flight deck, and powerful AA defenses made Midway-class ships virtually invulnerable to attacks from enemy aircraft.

Midway was released as a Bureau project reward on October 3rd, 2022.

Entered Service: 1945
Ships in a series: 3

Ship Traits
Point of Entry: HE bombs are able to penetrate thicker armor.	Double the Pain: Torpedo bombers drop two torpedoes each.	Powerful AA Defenses: Above-average AA gun firepower.
