Japans first heavy carrier, Originally a battleship due to be scrapped under the terms of 1922 Washington naval treaty- Japan was alowed to modifiy her and she was reconstructed into a carrier , took part in the Pearl harbour attack 07 Dec 1941
She was sunk on 4 June 1942, during the Battle of Midway, dive-bombers from USS Enterprise (CV-6) inflicted fatal damage on Kaga with Kaga sinking later in the day, I do not know how many of her crew of just over 2,000 men survived
