-Hyuga was completed at Mitsubishi Nagasaki Shipyard & Machinery Works in April 1918 as the second Ise-class battleship.
--The Ise-class battleship was originally a Fuso-class battleship because the start of construction was significantly delayed due to the financial tightness at that time, but it turned out that this class had a number of drawbacks based on the war lessons of the Battle of Jutland. This defect was corrected and it was designed and started as a modified Fuso type.
――Therefore, the appearance is very similar to the Fuso type, but there is a difference in the arrangement of the turrets, and the point is that the 3rd and 4th turrets in the center of the ship are arranged on the back of the rear chimney.
--Hyuga was immediately incorporated into the 1st Fleet of the 1st Fleet together with Ise, and the world's strongest fleet of 4 battleships equipped with Fuso, Yamashiro, Ise, and Hinata's super-class 36cm guns was completed.
――However, Hinata caused an explosion of the 3rd turret in October 1919, and in the following 9 years, it became a reserve ship and raised the elevation angle of the main gun for long-range gun battle to 30 °. We are undergoing remodeling one after another.
--And from 1927, the foremast tower was strengthened, and the shooting command center, survey station, watch station, irradiation command center, mast command center, each directional board aiming device, survey board, etc. It has changed completely from the previous one, and now it is a familiar Japanese battleship-like ship.
--This renovation work was completed in 1928.
--However, in 1930, a water reconnaissance aircraft stand was installed on the No. 5 turret, and in 1933, a catapult and a crane were installed on the rear deck to mount three water reconnaissance aircraft. Small modifications such as can be continued.
