Background

About the ship

Mutsu, the second Nagato-class battleship, entered service when the Washington Naval Conference was already in full swing. The ship took part in World War II: She covered the Pearl Harbor attack and participated in the Battles of Midway and the Solomon Islands. On June 8, 1943, Mutsu sank in Hashirajima port as a result of an explosion in her third turret magazines.
