Product Explanation ■ Muzuki Type Destroyer "Yugetsu" commercialized when the anti-aircraft equipment was strengthened.
The Muzuki Type Destroyer is divided into two types, the early type and the late type, depending on the equipment.
The latter type is divided into the early type, which is equipped with mainly anti-torpedo equipment on the rear deck, and the late type, which is equipped with paravane equipment and contributed to minesweeping operations.
Yugetsu is included in the latter type equipped with paravane equipment, and ships of the same type include 菊月, Mikazuki, and Mochizuki.
Most of the Muzuki Type are deployed as convoy escorts and continue to travel from the mainland to the South Pacific.
Most of the main class, which is said to have weak anti-aircraft equipment, will be deployed as convoy escorts and will continue to travel from the mainland to the South Pacific.
The main class, which is said to have weak anti-aircraft equipment, will be deployed as convoy escorts and will continue to travel from the mainland to the South Pacific.
The main class, which is said to have weak anti-aircraft equipment, will be equipped with two 25 mm tandem units and three tandem units to reinforce anti-aircraft equipment.
From August 20, 1944, Yugetsu and its allies will form a "Japanese version of the Hunter Killer Unit," consisting of Otaka aircraft carriers.
Due to the fleet escort that became a fierce battle, the Muzuki Type Destroyer will only have Uzuki and Yugetsu by around December 1944.
Due to the fleet escort that became a fierce battle, the Muzuki Type Destroyer will take part in a multi-ship operation aimed at unloading military supplies and personnel for the Japanese military against the U.S. forces that landed at Ormoc, Leite Island.
However, the U.S. attack was so fierce that all the transport ships were destroyed. Both Uzuki and Yugetsu, who joined the escort, sank the Uzuki on December 12,
and Yugetsu, the last remaining ship of the Muzuki Type, sank on December 13.
