Contents
The 20th installment of the popular series is the light cruisers of the Imperial Japanese Navy!
A thorough explanation of the three types of 5,500-ton light cruisers, the Tenryu, Kuma, Nagara, and Kawachi classes, which are said to be the ancestors of Japanese light cruisers.
Along with many photos published in this magazine for the first time, we introduce the planning process, characteristics, and battle history of these cruisers.
In addition, we have included side plans of all the ships by Shogo Hatanaka, making it easier to understand the differences between each ship.
This is a book for fans of Japanese light cruisers, who served as the flagship of a torpedo squadron and were active in difficult missions from night battles to transport operations during the Pacific War.
