Akizuki Destroyer details

When I started this new project of the JMSDF, I had no idea of the existence of this ship class. However, I was amazed by the huge quantity of weapons that it could carry, ranging from rockets, torpedoes, guns, mortars, depth charges, mines, you name it. Controlling all this firepower must have been a nightmare, which is why it probably led to the development of stand-off weapons like the ASROC or the helicopter, which substantially reduced the number of weapons carried while at the same time increasing their lethality.

Another reason why I wanted to build it was the mix of old and new design and technologies that this ship had. It definitely still keeps a WW2 Japanese Destroyer style shape (including the 533mm torpedoes and reloads that made Japanese Destroyers famous) while at the same time being equipped with American radars and anti-submarine rocket launchers.

I used wedged bricks because I wanted to achieve the “fast” hydrodynamic shape that these ships had; my next ships will feature another technic for the hull.
