Historical Information
Soryu was commissioned in 1937 and was one of the first Japanese fleet carriers designed from the keel up as an aircraft carrier rather than converted from another warship type. Fast and relatively lightly protected, she helped establish the basic design approach followed by later Japanese carriers. Soryu served in Carrier Division 2, took part in the attack on Pearl Harbor and subsequent operations across Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean, and was lost at Midway.
