The basic premise of the Akizuki-class destroyers was that of task force defence. As such, they were armed with eight of the new 3.9-inch dual purpose guns, considered by many to be the best Japanese anti-aircraft gun of World War Two, whose characteristics can only be described as superb. They were also heavily armed for anti-submarine warfare with no less than six depth charge throwers. Unfortunately to meet these demands, the torpedo load was reduced to a single quad mount.
