NOKAZE |
Nokaze was the lead ship of the Nokaze sub-class, an improvement to the Minekaze-class 1st class destroyers built for the Imperial Japanese Navy following World War I. Advanced for their time, these ships served as first-line destroyers through the 1930s, but were considered obsolescent by the start of the Pacific War. On February 20, 1945, Nokaze was torpedoed and sunk by the submarine USS Pargo (SS-264) north of Nha Trang, French Indochina in the South China Sea |
