Background

About the ship

A "small" destroyer designed on the basis of the Umikaze class and equipped with vertical expansion engines. It was the first class of destroyers to be entirely designed in Japan, and these ships were the country's most modern destroyers at the outbreak of World War I. In the Western world, the Tachibana class was acclaimed as a triumph of Japanese shipbuilding, prompting the French to commission Japan to build a dozen same-class destroyers.
