Japanese destroyer Shikinami (1929)
〔Nelson. ''Japanese-English Character Dictionary''. Page 461, 540〕 was the 12th of 24 s, built for the Imperial Japanese Navy following World War I. When introduced into service, these ships were the most powerful destroyers in the world. They served as first-line destroyers through the 1930s, and remained formidable weapons systems well into the Pacific War.
==History==
Construction of the advanced ''Fubuki''-class destroyers was authorized as part of the Imperial Japanese Navy's expansion program from fiscal 1923, intended to give Japan a qualitative edge with the world's most modern ships.〔Fitzsimons, ''Illustrated Encyclopedia of 20th Century Weapons and Warfare'' p.1040〕 The ''Fubuki'' class had performance that was a quantum leap over previous destroyer designs, so much so that they were designated . The large size, powerful engines, high speed, large radius of action and unprecedented armament gave these destroyers the firepower similar to many light cruisers in other navies.〔Peattie & Evans, ''Kaigun'' page 221-222.〕 ''Shikinami'', built at the Maizuru Naval Arsenal was the second in an improved series, which incorporated a modified gun turret which could elevate her main battery of Type 3 127 mm 50 caliber naval guns to 75° as opposed to the original 40°, thus permitting the guns to be used as dual purpose guns against aircraft.〔F Fitzsimons, ''Illustrated Encyclopedia of 20th Century Weapons and Warfare'' (London: Phoebus, 1977), Volume 10, p.1040.〕 ''Shikinami'' was laid down on 6 July 1928, launched on 22 June 1929 and commissioned on 24 December 1929. Originally assigned hull designation “Destroyer No. 46”, she was completed as ''Shikinami''.
The 4th Fleet Incident occurred only a year after her commissioning, and ''Shikinami'' was quickly taken back to the shipyards to have her hull strengthened.
