The Inchon Queen

South Korea's marine corps wants to build an aviation platform:

The Marine Corps is considering introducing a large transport ship capable of carrying warplanes, and mobilizing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to enhance its amphibious operations and surveillance capabilities, its chief said Wednesday.

Sounds like a South Korea modularized auxiliary cruiser could be the answer. Even if a purpose-built ship could work better, a conversion might do enough to be worthwhile at a lower price and allow them to test the concept.
