After discussing bombers and seeing off Marshall and Arnold, Nizi proposed the matter of battleships.
The focus, of course, was on the large carriers.
According to Nizi, it was essential to speed up the construction pace and scale of the "Ethe" class, ensuring not only that the lead ship could be delivered by the end of this year and enter service in the early next year but also that the delivery count for next year would increase from 3 to 5, accelerating the construction pace of the fifth and sixth ships; and the delivery for the following year would be expanded from 5 to 9, initiating the construction of the seventh and subsequent ships ahead of schedule, and from the seventh ship onward, all would feature a redesigned elongated front section to accommodate the latest ship-borne aircraft.
Furthermore, it was necessary to start the construction of the next type of large carrier ahead of time.
This was temporarily named the "CVB" large carrier.
