  • Subtitles section
  • Japan was undeniably one of the main naval powers of the World War II era.
  • The Imperial Navy commanded hundreds of ships, and some of them were pretty remarkable indeed.
  • Today we're going to talk about the most outstanding vessels on the Japanese roster, the biggest, the fastest, and the most dangerous.
  • The Issei class IJN Issei holds two records.
  • First, it's the largest ship by displacement.
  • Forty two thousand three hundred and two tons.
  • A monster of this size is pretty hard to sink.
  • Furthermore, she's no slouch in the firepower department either.
  • With twelve three hundred fifty six millimeter cannons, this battleship can hold her own against practically anyone.
  • The second record is for carrying more aircraft than anybody else.
  • The battleship is equipped to operate three reconnaissance float planes that are very handy for quick captures and bombing runs against smaller targets.
  • Fuso, a dreadnought battleship, has more crew members than any other Japanese ship — nineteen hundred people.
  • Eliminating some of them can make the Fuso less scary in combat, but it's very hard to incapacitate her completely, as any losses are quickly replaced.
  • Keep in mind, though, that even this gargantuan crew won't save the battleship from a good hit to a magazine.
  • The Type T XIV motor torpedo boat is the tiniest Japanese vessel, with a displacement of only fourteen and a half tons.
  • The small size of this MTB is both an advantage and a disadvantage.
  • On the one hand, the Type T XIV is pretty easy to knock out.
  • On the other hand, it can move around more freely than larger vessels.
  • For instance, it can go through very narrow straits and pop out in unexpected places, which is excellent for launching surprise torpedo attacks or dropping depth charges in a sneaky way.
  • The battleship Haruna is a gun god.
  • Eight three hundred fifty six millimeter cannons, eight one hundred fifty two millimeter cannons, twelve one hundred twenty seven millimeter cannons and a ludicrous amount of smaller anti air guns on top of that.
  • That's a hundred forty six barrels in total.
  • Obviously, you can't use all of them against a single target, but who cares?
  • Even when engaging larger ships, the Haruna is always safe — against bombers and small fry with torpedoes.
  • The Type T I motor torpedo boat holds a sad record for having the least effective guns among all Japanese vessels, as it is fitted with only two seven point seven millimeter machine guns.
  • It doesn't mean that it can't do well, though.
  • In the hands of an experienced captain, the Type T I can certainly deal a lot of damage to enemy targets.
  • That requires fitting it with two four hundred fifty millimeter torpedoes and coming up with a solid game plan.
  • Naturally, it's not just boats that use torpedoes.
  • Bigger ships were often equipped with torpedo tubes as well.
  • Take a look at the Nagato class IJN Mutsu.
  • This battleship has two records under its belt.
  • First, she carries more torpedoes than any other ship of her class.
  • Second, she's armed with the biggest guns.
  • Eight, four hundred ten millimeter cannons can wreck just about anyone, regardless of their size, with a single salvo.
  • As if that crazy firepower wasn't enough, you also get twenty four torpedoes to play with.
  • Thanks to them, the Mutsu is never really defenseless, even when her main guns are in the middle of a reload.
  • If we're talking about the craziest torpedo salvos, though, then we simply have to mention the IJN Shimakaze, a heavy duty destroyer.
  • She is equipped with three quintuple torpedo launchers that can fire all at once at a single target at either side.
  • That means that it takes the destroyer just a few seconds to send a wall of fifteen deadly Type XXIII torpedoes at you.
  • With that many long lances in the water, you can turn huge swaths of the sea into a no go zone.
  • A long lance isn't just any torpedo, either.
  • It can travel at a maximum speed of ninety one kilometers an hour, has a range of fifteen kilometers, and carries a warhead with almost a thousand kilograms of TNT.
  • Finally, the last champion on our list is a humble missile boat.
  • This is the PG Zero II, the fastest Japanese vessel in the game.
  • Thanks to her sleek hydrofoil design, the boat can reach a speed of ninety six kilometers an hour.
  • It's like driving an F One car, but on water.
  • The superior mobility of the PG Zero II allows the boat to play by its own rules.
  • It forces opponents to constantly guess where the next attack will be coming from.
  • The boat is also armed with a twenty millimeter Vulcan rotary cannon that can tear any other boat in half in just a few seconds.
  • In War Thunder, the Japanese Navy is certainly a force to be reckoned with.
  • The overwhelming firepower of the Mutsu, the swift torpedoes of the Shimakaze, and the monstrous cannons of Haruna can give hell to any opponent, however dangerous and tenacious they might be.
  • What do you think about Japanese ships though?
  • Do you have any favorites?
