Moving southwest, "Randolph" and other carriers were off the coast of Shikoku on 24 July, for an anti-shipping sweep of the Inland Sea, during which the carrier-battleship was heavily damaged and airfields and industrial installations on Kyūshū, Honshū, and Shikoku were hit hard. "Randolph"s pilots estimated that from 10–25 July they had destroyed 25 to 30 ships, ranging in size from small luggers to a 6000-ton freighter, and had damaged 35 to 40 others. "Randolph"s strikes continued right up to the morning of the 15 August surrender, when her planes hit Kisarazu Airfield and surrounding installations.
