Kitakami Tier X Japanese Cruiser
A unique "torpedo cruiser". Originally designed as a Kuma-class light cruiser. In 1941, along with one of her sister ships, IJN ÅŒi, Kitakami was laid up for major retrofitting to be equipped with an unusually powerful torpedo armament of ten quadruple torpedo tubes.ship details
