A further development of Japanese destroyers aimed at enhancing their combat capabilities based on the design of destroyer Akizuki. The ship carries five main battery turrets and maintains her speed owing to a propulsion system derived from experimental fast "cruiser destroyer" Shimakaze. The basis for the small-caliber anti-aircraft artillery is the Type 5 40 mm gun, a variant of the Bofors gun that could have been recreated using guns seized from Dutch and British forces.
