Ordeal of the Seventh Carrier — Peter Albano

MIGHTY WARSHIP OF YESTERYEAR
After lying trapped and frozen in an icy Arctic graveyard for over fifty years, the Japanese super-carrier Yonaga and its samurai crew emerged from the past into a world gone mad. An orbiting Red Chinese particle beam weapon has rendered the Earth's high-tech weaponry useless. Now, as the blood-thirsty forces of a crazed Middle Eastern terrorist hold the world at bay, only the Yonaga--the immense floating arsenal known as the legendary Seventh Carrier--can save mankind from the forces of evil.

AWESOME WEAPON OF TOMORROW
As Arab military strength under the leadership of the fanatic. Libyan terrorist widens in the western Pacific, Yonaga's officers prepare the great ship for a bloody showdown--and good men from all over the world flock to her colors. Even as high officials of the Libyan madman call for peaceful negotiations and an exchange of prisoners, an Arab battle group of a carrier, two cruisers and a fleet of destroyers steams toward the shores of Japan. The two forces clash off the island of Iwo Jima, where it's carrier against carrier in a fiery d9 l to the death--and the Yonaga, sustaining severe damage to men and ship, endures its bloodiest ordeal in the fight for freedom's cause.
