Yamagiri

The initial project of the Shimakaze-class destroyers involved the use of sextuple- or septuple-tube torpedo launchers to create a total side salvo of 18 to 21 torpedoes. However, due to the excessive total weight of the torpedo launchers and quick-reload systems, the project had to be abandoned.
