Quick, history buffs, what's a two on one fight Kaga fucking dominated?

I think this is the one that caused controversy among the Chinese recently when Kaga (JMSDF) was christened.

Well, September 1937 was bang in the middle of the Second Sino-Japanese War, which all the IJN's then-operational fleet carriers (Hōshō, Akagi, Kaga) were active combatants in. I'm not sure what, specifically, happened on the 23rd; I was under the impression that Kaga's air wings were temporarily detached to land bases, and the ship herself not much involved in their operations, at that time. Seems apparent that those other two characters are meant to represent Chinese ships, though again, I thought most of the IJNAS's activities were directed against land-based Chinese forces at that point in the war. So I dunno. I have fewer reference materials on hand regarding that war than I do the one that {followed|blended into} it.

The modern Japanese naming anything after anything that was involved in the Sino-Japanese Wars is going to cause controversy, regardless. Even compared to the excesses of the Pacific War, that period was... not Japan's finest hour.

Googling says these were the Chinese ships Ning

愛迪生2017年2月11日 08:13 八十島在1944年9月類別變更為二等巡洋艦，所以由其擔任第1輸送戰隊旗艦，因而該戰隊在歷史上又稱「八十島船團」，其沉沒後始由松型驅逐艦「竹」擔任旗艦。
