===Pros===
{{AA Sidebar Warning Insert}}
* Pro 1
Veteran captains who worked through ''[[Amagi]]'s'' old Hull (A) before it was removed will have a good idea of what to look forward to when captaining ''Ashitaka''. She follows the same trend as ''[[Mutsu]]'', where a ship's original stock hull is removed and presented as a premium one tier lower.  Ostensibly, this is what ''Ashitaka'' is: a slightly worse ''Amagi'' which has been brought down to Tier VII.
* Pro 2


''Ashitaka'' has ten 410mm guns mounted in five turrets, in the exact same arrangement as her sister ship, ''[[Amagi]]''. However, this is about where the similarities between the two end, and the ''Ashitaka'' becomes more comparable to the other Tier VII Japanese battleship, ''[[Nagato]]''. Similar to all other battleships from Tiers VI and VII, ''Ashitaka'' has 25mm of bow armor plating protection, leaving her vulnerable to overmatch by many battleships at her matchmaking spread.  Her main guns represent those of the T8 Japanese Battleship ''[[Amagi]]'', firing the same shells however at a slightly longer reload. This makes ''Ashitaka‘s'' broadside one of the most devastating broadside of any T7 Battleship, losing only to the French ''[[Lyon]]'' which however has a smaller caliber and worse accuracy.
===Cons===
* Con 1
* Con 2


''Ashitaka'' also has the same accuracy as her sister ship ''[[Amagi]]'', with identical dispersion and sigma values. She even has the same range, but unfortunately loses the ability to mount a {{Spotting Aircraft}}. She also has an armor belt extending from just in front of her first gun all the way back to near her aft. While it only covers half of ''Ashitaka's'' broadside, this is enough to bounce a good number of shells while angled.


Anyone who enjoys ''[[Amagi]]'' will likely feel at home with ''Ashitaka''’s play style.  Angling into or away from enemies will cause her to become much more survivable, and her guns are good enough. Just watch for cruisers, as HE typically deals a significant amount of damage to her. Also, be very wary of aircraft carriers; ''Ashitaka'' doesn't have enough AA to dissuade potential strikes, and her long hull makes for a prime target.

The recommended upgrades for ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' are as follows:
<div style="border: 2px solid rgba(212,175,55,0.8); border-radius: 3px; margin-bottom: 1em; overflow: hidden;">

| style="color:inherit;" | • Name || style="color:inherit;" | 410 mm HE Type0

| style="color:inherit;" | • Maximum damage || style="color:inherit;" | 6500

|-
| style="color:inherit;" | • Penetration (mm) || style="color:inherit;" | 68
|}
</div>


'''Upgrade Slot 3''' allows for specialization in certain roles. '''Aiming Systems Modification 1''' is a generally viable choice which benefits the main and secondary armaments. Players may also choose to equip {{Secondary Battery Modification 1}} to significantly improve the range and dispersion of the ship's secondary guns. This upgrade is useful for players who wish to maximize damage output in close-range engagements.

As a battleship, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' features high detection ranges that make concealment builds not very effective.  Thus, damage mitigation builds are recommended. Fire Prevention is extremely useful for reducing incoming fire damage, as well as other survival skills like High Alert, Vigilance, and Basics of Survivability. ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' does not have strong AA, so captain skills for this are less useful.

November Echo Setteseven ({{November Echo Setteseven|Size=18px}}) may also be mounted as well, however that will only boost the meager anti-aircraft armament slightly.

===History===
 
====Design====
The ''[[Amagi]]'' class (天城型 Amagi-gata?) was a series of four battlecruisers planned for the Imperial Japanese Navy as part of the so-called Eight-eight fleet. The ships were to be named ''Amagi, Akagi, Atago'', and ''Takao'' (initially named ''Ashitaka''), after the mountains Amagi, Akagi, Atago, and Takao.  The ''Amagi'' design was essentially a lengthened version of the ''Tosa''-class battleship, but with a thinner armored belt and deck and a modified secondary battery arrangement.
 
Limitations imposed by the 1922 Washington Naval Treaty prevented the class from being completed as designed. However, the treaty had a limited allowance for hulls already under construction to be converted into aircraft carriers.  ''Amagi'' and ''Akagi'' were both intended for conversion, but an earthquake damaged the hull of ''Amagi'' so extensively that the ship was scrapped.  ''Akagi'' was reconstructed as an aircraft carrier and served with distinction as part of the Kido Butai during the Second World War, participating in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor before being sunk at the Battle of Midway. ''Atago'' and ''Ashitaka'' were both scrapped on the ways and never launched or commissioned.
 
===Historical Inaccuracies===
* Actual name is ''Takao''. The ship was only named ''Ashitaka'' initially.
* ''Ashitaka'''s original 1920s design is not represented.
* ''Ashitaka'' is depicted in-game in a fictitious World War II configuration. Her anti-aircraft armament, for example, actually consisted of only four single 120mm dual-purpose guns.
* Light and dark green camouflage was only applied to aircraft carriers in 1944. Even though ''Ashitaka'' is fictionally modernized, Japanese battleships during World War II were painted in overall dark gray.
