	Talk:Ship prefix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Japanese Navy was basically modeled after that of the Great Britain as most of teachers came from there.
		A Japanese Navy ship visited Britain back around 1930s and there might be a news article in the library in Britain with newspaper clipping from that time.
		Also, having now read the Royal Australian Navy article, it seems that at the time, HMVS ships would have been considered Royal Navy, since there was no RAN yet, and it describes the individual colonial navies as providing only the "brown water" ships, which Cerberus wasn't.

		The name "battleship" was initially given to first-, second-, and third-rate ships of the line during the age of sail.
		Battleships had also played a major role in the Battle of Cape Matapan, 27-29 March 1941, when three Italian heavy cruisers were surpised and overwhelmed by three British battleships near Crete.
		The Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941 sank or damaged most of the U.S. Pacific Fleet's battleships, but the three aircraft carriers were not in port and so escaped damage.

	BB-61 Iowa Class
		Battleships were tasked to conduct prompt and sustained combat operations at sea, worldwide, in support of national interests.
		They were a new type for the Navy, the "fast battleship", intended to protect aircraft carriers against the threat of similar Japanese "big-gun" ships, as well as to form a "fast wing" for the traditional battle line.
		The Navy planned to keep the battleships on the register until its naval surface fire support gun and missile development programs achieve operational capability, which was estimated to occur between fiscal year 2003 and 2008.

		This prodigious development of the Japanese navy in recent years is due to three projects of expansion voted successively by the Chambers, the first (1903) requiring an extraordinary expenditure of 115,000,000 yen; the second (1905) 175,000,000 yen; the third (1907), 76,000,000 yen.
		But after the victories of the Japanese over the Russian armies it is not easy to conceive of even the Japanese, though Christians, as members of a church hitherto supported by the Russian Government.

	IMPERIAL JAPANESE NAVY MYSTERIES
		Despite his well-documented loathing of his Japanese enemies, the heavy cruiser KUMANO had sought to cheat death with a tenacity that was truly admirable, indeed almost miraculous.
		Especially so since the Japanese had forsaken strong anti-aircraft defense formation and their warships were advancing in groups of twos and fours at different speeds.
		The great battleships had already opened fire at the first of the hour, and soon the sea around Taffy 3 was filled with monstrous shell splashes and drifting clouds of smoke as U.S. Navy escorts sought to lay down a shielding smoke screen.

	Amazon.ca: Books: Kaigun: Strategy, Tactics, and Technology in the Imperial Japanese Navy, 1887-1941 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The Imperial Navy pioneered many innovations in weapons and tactics, such as the development of the oxygen-propelled torpedo, the use of destroyers in offensive operations, and employing midget submarines to offset the material superiority of the enemy.
		The Imperial Navy was fittingly proud of its elite core of naval professionals, which was highly instrumental in allowing the Navy to win two major naval engagements in the first thirty years of its existence.
		However, the presence of the crème de la crème might have actually blinded the Navy to the fact that its recruitment policies were intrinsically flawed; its elitism allowed it to become complacent and to overlook the need for a sizeable body of naval reservists.

		I used to use the standard that only ships commissioned into a navy (or Starfleet) could get onto the list, but that would eliminate some of the blimps, and the America's Cup yachts, all of which are historically significant.
