According to the Japanese media the refit of Izumo to enable F-35B will cost them around £375M. For that they get a new deck layout with more heat resistance, hangar modifications and a big change to magazines and aviation fuel storage; the rest is being spent on F-35 IT support system.

A quick third of a billion is quite a chunk of change.
