Item description from seller

58 pages. Illustrations (some with color). Warships Number 26. Special with 8 Extra Pages. Complete coverage, inside and out, of the Imperial Japanese Navy's complete heavy cruiser fleet during WWII. Detailed photographic coverage from all aspects including never before published photos! Heavily illustrated with black-and-white photographs accompanied with a detailed caption. 2 pages of full color profile paintings with various ensigns and paint schemes. Line art (drawings) of ships, armament and aircraft. Maya was one of four Takao-class heavy cruisers, active in World War II with the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN). These were the largest and most modern cruisers in the Japanese fleet, and were intended to form the backbone of a multipurpose long-range strike force. These ships were fast, powerful and heavily armed, with enough firepower to hold their own against any cruiser in any other navy in the world. Her sister ships were Takao, Atago and Ch kai. The Takao-class cruisers were an improved version of the My k -class design, incorporating technical elements learned with the development of the light cruiser Y bari. They had a distinctive profile with a large, raked main smokestack, and a smaller, straight, second smokestack. The Takao class had thicker armor, dual-purpose main guns which could be used against aircraft, and torpedo launchers moved to the upper deck for greater safety. However, as with its predecessors, the Takao class was also top-heavy.
