As to the "14" helo's, AP doesn't even know it's in a white out, the snow job is comming down so fast! As to the ability to add a ski-jump, look at the nose of the ship. I suspect it would take the Japanese less than a month to add one.

A destroyer? I guess they can call it anything they like. It’s their boat. And it likely can destroy stuff.

As long as the name isn’t one of these:Akagi, Kaga, Soryu, Hiryu, Shokaku and Zuikaku, things should be just fine.
