Has Kadokawa ever give anything about Allied ships? No.

But we have this: http://www.famitsu.com/news/201309/08039659.html

──いろいろな国の艦船が出るんですか？ 田中　ドイツ、アメリカ、イギリスなど、いろいろな国の艦船を出したいと思っています.

---Will there be ships of various nations?

Tanaka: Germany, America, UK, I would like to implement ships from many nations.

This Mr.Tanaka is Kankolle's producer, so what he "would like to do" is very likely to be what they "will do". This is Famitsu's interview in September 2013, just months from 2014 spring event, where the "ABDA fleet" appeared as the enemy. Did Tanaka changed his mind in less than half an year? We don't know, but unlikely. So IMO the abyssal fleet bearing some Allied refernce does NOT conflict with Allied ships' introduction.

One last reminder, by another of his statement, the abyssal fleet is "the negative thoughts of the sunken ship of BOTH SIDES", that's why they have CLTs and 20-inchers. (If you can read Japanese, google ["沈んでしまった彼我の艦艇" 想い] and you will find the source, it's from a Comptiq interview in 2013)

I actually posted these in another thread about the same issue, too, but can't find it afterwards....
