<< review queue entry 40647 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> Obvious if you know the naval terminology -- but I was unfamiliar with this sense of "island". Example ~ 以下是一組瓦良格航母返航入港時的高清圖，通過圖片可以清晰地看到甲板和__艦島__的部分細節。 Note: 瓦良格 = the name of the carrier (Varyag) The superstructure of a carrier (such as the bridge, flight control tower) are concentrated to the starboard side of the deck in a relatively small area called an island, a feature pioneered on the HMS Hermes in 1923. Very few carriers have been designed or built without an island. The flush deck configuration proved to have very significant drawbacks, complicating navigation, air traffic control, and had numerous other adverse factors. ---- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_carrier Wp ~ Ryūjō was a flush-deck carrier. In place of an island structure, her navigating and control bridge was located just under the forward lip of the flight deck in a long glassed-in "greenhouse". |
