Is there an aircraft carrier in Japan?

Japan is a defeated country and cannot possess offensive weapons in the standard sense. So it is impossible to build an aircraft carrier at present.

Japan does not have a standard aircraft carrier, but only a helicopter carrier. But that thing is no different from an aircraft carrier. Replacing a helicopter with a carrier-based aircraft is a standard aircraft carrier.

There are two helicopter carriers in active service, namely Sunward NO. 16DDHNo。 18 1 heyi. 182. the displacement is close to the British invincible aircraft carrier. But now only helicopters are equipped. In addition, there are three large even-class landing ships with flight decks similar to aircraft carriers. This is just a landing ship. There are also two helicopter carriers with more than 20,000 tons under construction. Marked as 22DDH and 24DDH. It seems to have started. The date and name of the service are unknown.
