PROD removed by IP without comment. Original concern stands: this is a term that is unknown in English sources; at best, it's a poor translation from the Japanese term for the ships being described; at worst, it's blatantly WP:MADEUP, and either way it's not notable. The correct English term for this type of ship is "hybrid warship", and while there may be an article that can be written on that subject, all this article is is a stub recounting of information from Ise-class battleship.

- I believe there are fairly active and expert editors at the
WP:ships project. What do they make of this article subject?

- Delete - the title makes it sound like some sort of airship, and there's really no notability for the term at all. Nothing really worth merging anywhere, either. 6 an 6 sh6 05:40, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

- Delete per nom - this sounds like a bad translation, and while the topic of hybrid warships might be notable, this specific type isn't by itself. Parsecboy ( talk) 19:18, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
- Delete - This is not notable and even if it is somewhat, it isn't relevant to English Wikipedia. Plus the way this article is written I have concerns over it being plagiarized. FirstDrop87 ( talk) 01:02, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
- Delete. The Japanese vessels existed; Gibbs and Cox did propose a battleship-carrier design for the USSR in the 1930s, but this term is incorrect and a either a neologism or poor translation, as suggest above. Kablammo ( talk) 01:59, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
- Delete it's a literal translation of a Japanese term, it's not the English language term. (it would probably be better translated as "Aviation Battleship" anyways, just as we have Aviation Cruisers, etc) As for the ship structure itself, some early aircraft carriers were build that way, with flight deck, bridge superstructure and turrets on the different thirds of the ships. -- 70.24.244.161 ( talk) 05:57, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
- Delete, as per nomination. At best a paragraph in the Battleship article but not under a literal translation of the Japanese.-- Petebutt ( talk) 08:40, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
