Akitsu Maru was an I.J.N landing craft depot, ship, and escort aircraft carrier, and also considered to be the first amphibious assault ship. The ship was fitted with a flight deck above the ull, but had no hangar so the aircraft were stored below the flight deck on the original main deck.
It was completed in January 1942 and took part in the Java landing operation in February of the same year. In 1943 it was equipped with the Kayaba Ka-1, an autogyro for anti-submarine uses.
The Akitsu Maru was sunk by the submarine Queenfish on November 15 1944 while it was on a mission to Convoy Hi-81 into the Philippines.
