I have Plan Orange from Avalanche Games. This covers a hypothetical war between the US and Japan but is set before WWII and I think it cover the situation if the Washington Naval Treaty had never happened.
That's right. The scenarios are set around 1930 in the Western Pacific on a map that includes Japan, the Philippines, and the coast of mainland Asia. Fleets include ships that were never built due to Washington Naval Treaty limits.
While both the IJN and USN have some aircraft carriers (and the USN has dirigibles --
Macon,
Shenandoah, and
Los Angeles) -- two of which carry fighter aircraft internally), the fleets have lots of battleships, some of classes that were never undertaken due to the Washington Treaty. The USN even has a couple of battle cruisers.
