Japanese Warship Kongo 1915

The Japanese battleship Kongô, a ship with a magical name that means diamond or earlier lighting bolt was budgeted in 1910 and ordered from the British shipbuilder Vickers in January 1911. This was a significant act in an era of important shipbuilding. The Dreadnought of 1905, with its speed, size, and firepower, had made all earlier battleships obsolete. It was inspired by the lessons of the great battle of Tsushima, the first real naval battle with modern warships, in the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-05. Cruisers were named after mountains; Battleships after Provinces; Light Cruisers after mountains.
