I seem to recall that there are particular constitutional issues with trying to get money for ships described as being above destroyers, ie cruisers, aircraft carriers etc.

Also, it may be that the Japanese have been under reporting the displacement of some of their warship classes.

In any event the latest ship is only slightly more a destroyer than my elderly cat. It is a small carrier.

The plot thickens!!
