The first ship in the world to be specifically designed and completed as an aircraft carrier. A system of lights and mirrors along the flight deck assisted pilots in landing on the carrier.Hosho was the only Japanese aircraft carrier with two hangars.

Loading was using 15-round magazines and required two loaders constantly manipulating these, reducing the rate of fire to 110-120 rpm.Hōshō two Parsons geared turbine fed by eight Type B water-tube Kampon boilers, four oil-fired and the other coal/fuel mixed-fired. Hōshō — Japanese Tier IV aircraft сarrier.

A small island was mounted well forward on the starboard side and contained the ship’s bridge and air operations control center.The island was fitted with a small tripod mast intended to mount the ship’s fire-control system.

She already relied on an escort to operate safely.It was limited to six guns: Four single 14 cm/50 3rd Year Type guns and two single 8 cm/40 3rd Year Type AA guns.This was heavy for an aircraft carrier but as the concept was brand new and since aviation seemed not a worthy defensive scheme, the new ships types doctrine included self-defence. They were positioned on the flight deck, just forward of the rear elevator.Hōshō’s keel was laid down by the Asano Shipbuilding Company in Tsurumi-ku, Yokohama, on 16 December 1920.

Placed just forward of the rear elevator they fired a 6-kgs (12.5–13.2 lb) shell at 680 m/s, up to 10,800 meters (11,800 yd) at 45° and with a 7500 m ceiling at 13-20 rpm. Five of the fighters ran out of fuel and had to ditch in the sea, although the aircrews were rescued.Hosho and Ryūjō bombers continued with almost daily attack missions until the end of September. Construction of a seaplane carrier was authorized by the Japanese government in its "eight-six" fleet program of 1918. The First Carrier Division rejoined the Combined Fleet on 20 March, after a ceasefire had been declared on 3 March.Hosho participated in the Combined Fleet Maneuvers of 1935 where she was attached to the IJN Fourth Fleet.

She saw also her old 140 mm battery removed and twenty 25 mm AA guns fitted instead. Some of her aircraft also operated from Kunda Airfield for the IJA.

She had a small command tower and a tripod mast, but these were removed in 1923 to achieve a pure “flush-deck”. She was originally completed with an "island" on her starboard side, but this was removed in 1923.

Hōshō became indeed in her early years, the prototype for all future IJN aircraft carriers. At 50° angle, range was 7,500 meters (8,202 yd), ceiling 5,500 meters (18,000 ft). The barrier was intended to prevent landing aircraft from colliding with aircraft preparing to take off, and stop them from falling into the open elevator well. The ship was to be capable of 30 knots (The superstructure was removed and the funnels were moved to one side to create an unobstructed, full-length flight deck, and the ship was reclassified as an aircraft carrier. - Aircraft / Offshore Support instead she served as a training carrier. In 1925 further modifications were applied, like a crash barrier net aft of the forward elevator, hydraulically erected in three seconds. However the company started early producing licence-built Farmans and Sopwith.The first Japanese aircraft carrier was completed at Yokosuka Naval Arsenal, starting on 10 January 1922 but ending in March 1922 as first planned. The planes she operated only made training landings and were land-based.By that date, she was indeed devoid of any planes, relegated to secondary duties. April 10, 1941 marked a pivotal moment in naval aviation history.

British aid was sought, and the latter sent the At that time, the Japanese naval aviation, embryonic since only a few tests had been conducted, became an independent body of the army.

Hosho (Aircraft Carrier, 1922-1947) Hosho , a 7470-ton aircraft carrier built at Tsurumi, Japan, was completed in December 1922, the first of her type to enter service in the Japanese Navy. The former was cancelled and the latter was eventually evolved from its original seaplane form to a dedicated aircraft carrier in 1921 for the IJN after Japanese observers in Britain liked what they saw with HMS Hermes. The hangar was served by two octagonal centerline aircraft elevators. The first naval fighters appeared, including the famous Mitsubishi 1MF1, the first of a long serie leading to the brilliant Zero in 1940.
