Shimotsuki

[edit]

Hi! Any source for the assigment of Shimotsuki under Akizuki sub-class? o_O Infobox says that first batch was only 6 vessels and Shimotsuki is 7th. Also Shimotsuki's hull number was 360 (if this number in this article is correct). 36* hull number was hullnumber of Fuyuzuki and Michizuki subclasses. According to Nevitt's Akizuki class notes the 2nd batch was called "Shimotsuki group" – it means that Shimotsuki was the 1st member of the 2nd group and not the last one of the 1st.--Sceadugenga (talk) 11:31, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Impulse geared turbines"

[edit]

Shouldn't that be written "geared impulse turbines"? They are impulse turbines, as opposed to reaction turbines, which also happen to be geared down. Geared impulse turbines..45Colt 23:07, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
