Overview
The development of the Mogami-class cruisers into anti-aircraft defense cruisers, which implied mounting dual-purpose 150 mm guns developed in 1944 as the main armament. The mounting of these and 100 mm AA guns would make it possible to turn these cruisers into an effective weapon against American deck- and ground-based aviation.
