High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Japanese battleship Fus was a part of the Imperial Japanese Navy, the lead ship of the Fus -class. She was laid down by the Kure Kaigun Kosh on 11 March 1912, launched on 28 March 1914 and completed on 18 November 1915. Her 356 mm (14 in) main gun turrets were placed in an unorthodox 2-1-1-2 style (with her sister ship Yamashiro having her third turret reversed when compared to Fus ) and with a funnel separating the middle turret placement. This arrangment was not entirely successful as the armoured section was needlessly lengthened and the middle guns had trouble targeting. However, Fus 's relatively fine hull form allowed her to reach a speed of 22 kn (41 km/h; 25 mph).
