It’s a flagship in the sense that it was the largest and most advanced ship in that particular fleet. But, it was an anti aircraft ship and had to be positioned in range of it’s objectives.
A flagship is the ship to which the top admiral resides. By definition, it is not necessarily what you describe. This ship was not suppose to be located where it was. A head command would be located in the safest waters. It doesn't make sense. And probably the reason why the admiral is in deep shit for violating military protocol.
