■Product Description
Of the 32 Matsu-class destroyers built as wartime hastily constructed ships, the later 14, whose structure was further simplified, were also called the Tachibana-class (modified Matsu-class).
The main mission of this class was to support convoy escort for amphibious and supply operations. They were equipped with anti-aircraft guns, anti-submarine torpedo tubes, depth charge launchers, and depth charge rails, as well as carrying two 10m special cargo ships (small landing craft) for troop transport and supply.
The Tachibana was completed at the Yokosuka Naval Arsenal in January 1945, but was sunk in July of the same year by an Allied air raid off the coast of Hakodate.
Furthermore, as the war situation worsened, the sister ships Take, Nashi, Shii, Kaya, and Kaba underwent modifications to install mounting platforms for the special weapon Kaiten at the stern.
