Yodo — Japan Tech Tree Tier X Cruiser.

The archive of the Japanese Navy has preserved a project of a cruiser with a displacement of 10,000 tons, armed with six triple-gun turrets housing 150 mm dual-purpose guns. The ship was supposed to carry aviation and was probably the project of a cruiser designed to lead a submarine flotilla.

Pros

• HE shells deal heavy damage per salvo
• Decent armor for a light cruiser
• Excellent torpedo characteristics

Cons

• Mediocre maneuverability
• Large size
• Slow torpedo speed and high reaction time
