Hakuryū's air group was to consist of up to 75 aircraft, making the ship-to-be the largest carrier in the Imperial Japanese Navy.

Her service continues to this day in her role as a museum ship in San Diego, California. She was also deployed in the Gulf War, acting as flagship of the naval task force during Operation Desert Storm. She operated for 46 years, seeing action in Vietnam and receiving a Presidential Unit Citation in the process. Midway was commissioned in September 1945, mere days after World War II ended.
