<p class="p1">At first, Ise and Hyuuga were planed to be built as the 3rd and 4th of the Fuso-class battleships, but because of many defects found in Fuso and Yamashiro and because of budget problem, their construction was put off. In this period, learning a lesson from Fuso class BBs, design of Ise & Hyuuga was widely changed (e.g. '''positioning of 3rd, 4th turrets'''<span style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">, see the photo cited from [https://archive.org/details/brasseysnavala1923brasuoft%7C Brassey's Naval Annual 1923] p.426</span><span style="font-size:14px;line-height:22px;">) and at last they appeared as Ise class battleships.</span></p>

<p class="p1">Amid WW2, Ise & Hyuuga were changed into CCV. There are 2  main reasons for it. 1.In  an exercise on 5/5/1942, there was an accident on '''the 5th turret of Hyuuga''' and she needed fixing. 2. Japanese Navy had to compensate for loss of 4 regular aircraft carriers in Battle of Midway (June 1942). Under this  situation, instead of restoring the original state, Hyuuga was remodeled as BBV (and Ise got the same treatment.)</p>

Though they became BBVs, they were not utilized as BBVs in combat partly because there were not enough planes available for them, and they served solely as BBs until they were sunk. This can be seen in the fact that '''their catapults were removed'''.
