Background

About the ship

An Asashio-class destroyer. Ten ships in this series were built between 1935 and 1939, following a design created after Japan departed from international treaties aimed at restricting naval armament. In the Pacific War, Minegumo played a role in the invasions of Malaya, the Philippines, and the Dutch East Indies. She also took part in the Battle of the Java Sea and frequently transported reinforcements as part of the Tokyo Express. However, on March 5, 1943, during another transport mission, the destroyer was sunk by an American squadron in Blackett Strait.
