ARP Kongō
A Fleet of Fog battleship modeled after the lead ship of the Imperial Japanese Navy's Kongō-class battleships, Kongō. As the flagship of the First Oriental Fleet, her Mental Model—Kongō—honors the Admiralty Code above all else. She seeks to eliminate the submarine I-401, who chose to deviate from the Code. This warship has been modeled after Kongō as she appears in "ARPEGGIO OF BLUE STEEL -ARS NOVA-."
