Tenryū
The Tenryū-class cruisers were intended to be destroyer leaders and were supposed to cooperate in parallel with the Furutaka-class naval scouts. The ships received new 140 mm main battery guns. During World War II, Tenryū was used as an escort ship during the invasions of New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. She participated in the Battle of Savo Island and the Battle of Guadalcanal. On December 19, 1942, near the Port of Madang, Tenryū was torpedoed by American submarine USS Albacore and sank.
