  Japanese Heavy Cruiser Takao
The heavy cruiser Takao was one of the mammoth Japanese "treaty cruisers" (or "A" class cruisers) built theoretically to the limits of the Washington Naval Treaty--10,000 tons but modified during construction to reflect the London Naval Treaty of 1930 and eventually displacing nearly 15,000 tons.
Takao itself was primarily support for the fast carrier and amphibious assault units that expanded Japanese territory before May 1942; afterwards, she and her three sisters (Chokai, Maya, and Atago) were primarily retained as carrier escorts or as a raiding group.
Takao was in fact close in many ways to being a capital ship; although she only carried a cruiser's guns, the torpedo tubes, displacement, and speed were closer to being worthy of a battlecruiser.

The second Takao, however, who was active in the mid-1650s, was renowned for her skills in seducing rich and powerful patrons.
