1/1250 Jun Yo 1944 (scratch-built)
Jun Yo first mission was attacking Dutch Harbour, Alaska, on June 3rd and 5th in response to the Midway Island attack, and then being transferred to the Solomons, Guadalcanal, and the South Pacific. She was repeatedly repaired and damaged, and when the repairs were completed in March 1945, there were no more aircraft to carry. Jun Yo was one of the few Japanese units never sunk at the end of WWII.
