Great work! Passing the GA now. — Ed! (talk) 02:23, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
How does this work, the article lists the ship as having
eight 45-caliber 41-centimeter guns in five twin-gun turrets, two fore and three aft of the superstructure
and the text box lists the ship as having ten guns, as do the external links. This arrangement seems impossible and a recent edit to change it to ten guns by an anon was reverted back to eight. I lack access to any of the physical sources and don't feel like getting into an edit war with a respected admin but this does seem inconsistent Design A-125 ( talk) 10:56, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
Still the concept drawing appears to be wrong -- I count only four turrets, rather than five. The drawing seems to depict the related, but different "Type 13" class ships. (See the article there.) But I'm not knowledgable enough to say something definite about this. Any experts here who could clear up the confusion? -- Syzygy ( talk) 08:08, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
A credible article published in the annual Warship reports that the two supposedly-unnamed ships of this class, Number 11 and Number 12, were to be named Suruga and Omi. I plan to add this information as soon as I can dig my copy out of storage and forumlate the citation. -- 2600:1700:B450:7500:ACBF:1D5C:C373:8EBD ( talk) 03:00, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
