About Japanese Destroyer Akatsuki
Akatsuki was the twenty-first Fubuki-class destroyer, or the lead ship of the Akatsuki class, built for the Imperial Japanese Navy in the inter-war period. When introduced into service, these ships were the most powerful destroyers in the world. They remained formidable weapons systems well into the Pacific War.
