Background

About the ship

According to the London Naval Treaty, Japan had the right to build cruisers with artillery up to 155 mm. New cruisers with 155 mm guns were ordered, but the weaponry was later replaced with 203 mm (8-inch) guns. During World War II, Mogami participated in the occupation of Indochina, as well as the invasions of Malaya, Sarawak, and Indonesia. She also fought in the Sunda Strait, the Battle of Midway, and the Battle of the Philippine Sea. On October 25, 1944, during the Battle of Leyte Gulf, Mogami was heavily damaged by American torpedo bombers and finally finished off by destroyer Akebono.
