Which Second World War Japanese warship would be the personal choice to own?
Short answerMutsu, because her surviving artifacts give her a particularly strong connection to Yokosuka's naval history.
NotesMutsu is the personal choice because her surviving 16-inch gun and shells give her a visible presence around Yokosuka. She also appears in a local museum associated with a French engineer. A Kongō-class ship is another possibility, but Mutsu's repeated presence during the visit makes her the preferred choice.
