Number of Aircraft in Attacking Flight – 1. Both Kii and these ships were prevented from being built by the Washington Conference, which resulted in a temporary ban on battleship construction and a limit on total tonnage. However, this design exceeded Kii in displacement by 9,000 tons, which would have resulted in a significant increase in cost. It was also armed with five main battery turrets but with larger caliber guns. Project L, an enlarged version of Project A, which became Kii class, was developed. Construction was scheduled to begin in 1922, but because of the Washington Conference, these battlecruisers were not laid down.Īfter revision of the Japanese fleet development plan, new battleships and battlecruisers were ordered. The so-called “Project A,” which became the Kii-class, was chosen as the battleship, and “Project K” was chosen for the battlecruisers. Thirteen variants of battleships and battlecruisers were proposed.

After the United States announced an ambitious shipbuilding program in 1919, the Japanese naval plan was revised: it required four battleships and four battlecruisers to be built.
