[Ship type: Heavy cruiser]
[Country: Japan]
- Ship history]
- The Japanese Navy, which was prevented from realizing the 8.8 Fleet by the Washington Disarmament Conference, was forced to be at a disadvantage with 60% of its capital ships compared to the United States.
- With the idea of compensating for this inferiority with other ship types, the ship type was decided to be a shell-type cruiser, which had a displacement of less than 10,000 tons and was equipped with an 8-inch caliber gun, the largest among auxiliary ships. Taking note of this, they decided to build a large number of these shell-class cruisers to compensate for their inferiority in capital ship strength.
- In accordance with this policy, four Myoko-class cruisers were built, with a displacement of 10,000 tons, just below the treaty limit, equipped with ten 20-centimeter (7.9-inch) guns, and eight torpedo tubes.
- However, since American and British armor-class cruisers of the same class are equipped with 8-inch (20.3 cm) caliber guns as stipulated by the treaty, the next ships to be built will be changed to 8-inch guns to improve the striking power of the naval guns and improve the ability to traverse. Its attack power was increased by equipping it with a torpedo tube.
- This is a Takao-class cruiser.
