A flight deck for seaplanes was installed at the stern while the main gun turrets remained at the bow. The vessel took part, among others, in the Battle of the Philippine Sea in 1944, mainly as a support ship and seaplane transport. Its years of service were during World War II (1939–1945), with peak activity in 1944.
