The Kii class was a planned battleship design of the Imperial Japanese Navy. Designed by Yuzuru Hiraga, the 42,600 t (41,927-long-ton) class was to have been armed with ten 16.1 in (408.9 mm) guns and would bring Japan closer to its goal of an "Eight-eight fleet" (eight battleships and eight battlecruisers). However, after the Washington Naval Conference and the signing of the Washington Treaty, work on the ships was suspended, and they were cancelled in November 1923 (un-named ones) and April 1924 (named ones).
The design was an improved Amagi-class battlecruiser, itself an evolution of the Tosa-class battleship. In keeping with a new classification system, the Kii class merged the battleship and battlecruiser categories, being designated "High Speed Battleships."
The ship has been designed to look like a 1940's IJN naval ship. The file contains all the sounds and pcx files. Model is not my own creation because Karle94 (From Subsim) provided it. Wyrmshadow provided the animation files and Ares de Borg did the sounds. I merely put the pieces together and cleaned up the model for CivIII and added some what if pieces. A big thanks to everyone that helped out!
