For as popular as it is in fiction, the 'battlecarrier' concept was only really attempted, properly, one time. The Ise-class battleships, refit into...less than ideal hybrid warships.

This video will focus on the second ship, Hyūga. This ship had a run of bad luck even before the rebuild. In fact, it was her final bout of bad luck- a wrecked turret -that likely led to her rebuild.

A rebuild that turned an admittedly obsolescent battleship, into a kinda bad hybrid. A battleship with a giant, flaming, weakpoint on the stern. An aircraft carrier that couldn't recover her own planes.

Not the best idea, though I can understand the logic behind the decision.
