Японские тяжелые крейсера 1941-1945

Designed with little more than a passing nod to the international naval treaties of the inter-war period,
the Imperial Japanese Navy's heavy cruisers were fast and heavily armed. Like the other vessels of the Japanese Navy,
the heavy cruisers were technologically superior to and far more innovative than their Allied rivals, whom they met
in many of the major Pacific Theater battles, including Midway and Leyte Gulf.
