I want my Enterprise so all the IJN girls get their panic faces on. Enterprise and Hornet took part in the Doolittle Raid, so you may still have hope. No, the Yorktown-class is NOT a large carrier, and not featuring huge funnels. Not as large as Lexington, yes, but I wouldn't call Hornet small either. That goes both for displacement and it's stack.

By Japanese definition YKTN counts as medium carrier ( roughly the same size as the Soryu-class series)

To be counted "large", one probably has to at least weigh 20000 long tons (standard), or 30000 long tons (full), when compared with Shokaku.
