These were the largest and most modern cruisers in the Japanese fleet, and were intended to form the backbone of a multipurpose long-range strike force. These ships were fast, powerful and heavily armed, with enough firepower to hold their own against any cruiser in any other navy in the world. Her sister ships were Takao, Atago and Ch kai. The Takao-class cruisers were an improved version of the My k-class design, incorporating technical elements learned with the development of the light cruiser Y bari. They had a distinctive profile with a large, raked main smokestack, and a smaller, straight, second smokestack. The Takao class had thicker armor, dual-purpose main guns which could be used against aircraft, and torpedo launchers moved to the upper deck for greater safety. However, as with its predecessors, the Takao class was also top-heavy.
