Brief History of IJN Kongo:
In 1911, Japan implemented “Plan 88”, building four battlecruisers based on the Royal Navy’s
Lion
class. IJN
Kongo
was the first of these battlecruisers, designed and built in 1913 by Vickers Shipbuilding in the UK. The first of the
Kongo
class, she was also the last Japanese capital ship built outside of Japan.
Kongo
was Japan’s first
Dreadnaught
era capital ship and a significant milestone in Japanese naval history.
Kongo
participated in WWI, mainly deployed to the Pacific for escort missions. After the Great War,
Kongo
went through a number of refits and was eventually upgraded to battleship status.
She saw much action in WWII, notably Guadalcanal and Leyte Gulf. Eventually she was sunk by the US submarine USS
Sealion
northwest of Taiwan on November 21, 1944.
We have the Kajika WOOD DECK sheets available for Kongo class warships in another listing.
