Design and descriptionThe Kagerō class was an enlarged and improved version of the preceding {{sclass-|Asashio|destroyer|4}}. Their crew numbered 240 officers and enlisted men. The ships measured {{convert|118.5|m|ftin|sp=us}} overall, with a beam of {{convert|10.8|m|ftin|sp=us}} and a draft of {{convert|3.76|m|ftin|sp=us}}.[1] They displaced {{convert|2065|t|LT|sp=us}} at standard load and {{convert|2529|t|LT|sp=us}} at deep load.[2] The ships had two Kampon geared steam turbines, each driving one propeller shaft, using steam provided by three Kampon water-tube boilers. The turbines were rated at a total of {{convert|52000|shp|lk=in}} for a designed speed of {{convert|35|kn|lk=in}}. The ships had a range of {{convert|5000|nmi|lk=in}} at a speed of {{convert|18|kn}}.[3] The main armament of the Kagerō class consisted of six Type 3 {{convert|127|mm|adj=on|1|sp=us}} guns in three twin-gun turrets, one superfiring pair aft and one turret forward of the superstructure. They were built with four Type 96 {{convert|25|mm|adj=on|1|sp=us}} anti-aircraft guns in two twin-gun mounts, but more of these guns were added over the course of the war. The ships were also armed with eight {{convert|610|mm|in|adj=on|1|sp=us}} torpedo tubes for the oxygen-fueled Type 93 "Long Lance" torpedo in two quadruple traversing mounts; one reload was carried for each tube.[2] Their anti-submarine weapons comprised 16 depth charges.[3] Construction and careerImperial Japanese NavyEarly in the war she took part in the invasions of the Philippines and the Dutch East Indies. She participated in the battles of Midway, Santa Cruz, Leyte Gulf, and the Philippine Sea, as well as a lengthy stint on Guadalcanal troop runs and the naval battles around that island. Yukikaze also survived Operation Ten-Go during which the battleship {{ship|Japanese battleship|Yamato||2}} was sunk. Between these major engagements, Yukikaze participated in escort duty for ships in transit, particularly in the redeployment of the aircraft carrier {{ship|Japanese aircraft carrier|Shinano||2}} during which the newly completed carrier was torpedoed by a USN submarine and sunk. She spent the last months of the war on security duty in Japanese harbors and survived many Allied air raids. As a result of participating in and surviving some of the most dangerous battles the IJN had fought, Yukikaze is very popular in Japan, being called "the unsinkable ship" and "the miracle ship" much like {{ship|Japanese destroyer|Shigure|1935|2}} prior to that ship's sinking by {{USS|Blackfin|SS-322|6}}. Yukikaze took part in more than 10 major battles, and more than 100 escort missions and resupply transport missions during World War II. After the war, she was used as a transport to bring home Japanese military forces still abroad. Yukikaze, {{ship|Japanese destroyer|Ushio|1930|2}} and {{ship|Japanese destroyer|Hibiki|1932|2}} were the only ships to survive among the 82 Japanese destroyers built before the war. ROCS Tan YangOn 6 July 1947, Yukikaze-雪風 was transferred to the Republic of China as a war reparation, where she was renamed Tan Yang (丹陽). All destroyers were named after Yang regardless of country of origin. Tan Yang served as flagship of the Republic of China Navy, and between 1947 and 1953 was fitted with Type 89 12.7 cm/40 dual mounted guns, in addition to the Type 98 10cm/65 dual mounted guns already in use. In 1953, Tan Yang was refitted; all Japanese armaments were removed and replaced with three open air mounted 5"/38 caliber guns, 3"/50 caliber guns replaced the torpedo tubes, Bofors 40 mm guns, and newer depth charge launchers. The Republic of China Navy had no use for the original torpedo tubes as they did not have access to the appropriate armaments. She is notable for visiting Manila where 50,000 overseas Chinese cheerfully visited. Patrolling the South China sea, and intercepting incoming ships carrying wartime materials into Shanghai harbor. She also intercepted a Polish oil tanker (SS Praca), Prezydent Gottwald, and Soviet Tuapse carrying jet fuel into Communist China between 1953-1954, and saw action along the Taiwan Strait in a supporting role as that was one of the few ships with long range guns. With more modern US surplus destroyers entering ROC Navy service, the famous destroyer that once served as flagship retired and was scrapped in 1970. In Japan, there was a campaign to get her returned to Japan from Taiwan for preservation as a museum ship since she was the symbol for longevity. Her rudder and one of her anchors were repatriated to Japan Navy Academy museum as a good will gesture.
