Agano-class cruiser
The four were light cruisers operated by the Imperial Japanese Navy.〔 page 111-112〕 All were named after Japanese rivers. Larger than previous Japanese light cruisers, the ''Agano''-class vessels were fast, but with little protection, and were under-gunned for their size. They participated in numerous actions during World War II.
The ''Agano'' class was followed by the larger , of which only a single vessel was completed.
==Background==
The Imperial Japanese Navy had developed a standardized design for light cruisers as flagships for destroyer and submarine squadrons, based on a 5,500 ton displacement, shortly after World War I. However, by the 1930s these vessels were obsolete, as contemporary destroyers were faster, carried more powerful armament, and had greater endurance. As soon as the restrictions of the London Naval Treaty were removed, the Navy General Staff developed a plan within the Fourth Fleet Supplemental Budget to build 13 new 6000 ton cruisers between 1939 and 1945 to replace the , , and s. These vessels were intended to be the flagships for six destroyer squadrons and seven submarine squadrons. The new design was finalized in October 1937; however, construction was delayed due to overloading of the Japanese shipyards.〔Stille, '' Imperial Japanese Navy Light Cruisers 1941-45 '', pages 34-39;〕 Construction costs came to 16.4 million yen per vessel.
