Japanese minelayer Minoo : ウィキペディア英語版 | Japanese minelayer Minoo
was a minelayer of the Imperial Japanese Navy, which was in service during the final stages of World War II. She was the lead ship of what was intended to be a two-vessel class, but her sister ship, designated ''Vessel #1822'' was not completed before the end of the war. ==Building== During the very final stages of World War II, in preparation for the anticipated Allied invasion of the Japanese home islands, the Imperial Japanese Navy perceived the need to block the entrances to the Sea of Japan, namely the La Pérouse Strait, Tsugaru Strait and Tsushima Strait to protect Japan’s long and relatively lightly defended western coastline. However, as all minelayers has been sunk by that time, an emergency program was begun under the ''Maru Sen'' Programme to construct several small vessels for this task. ''Minoo'' was a modified ''Type 2D'' wartime standard cargo ship, which had been laid down by the Naniwa Dock Company on November 29, 1944. It was requisitioned by the Imperial Japanese Navy in December before completion, was launched on May 13, 1945, and was commissioned into service on August 5, 1945 after modifications at the Kure Naval Arsenal.
