NACHI
Nachi was the second of four Myoko-class heavy cruisers built for the Imperial Japanese Navy.
Nachi was in Manila Bay on 5 November 1944 when she was attacked by three waves of US planes from the aircraft carriers USS Lexington and Ticonderoga of Task Force 38. In the engagement, Nachi was hit at least nine times with torpedoes as well as rockets. She was broken into three parts by two large explosions and sank in the middle of a large oil slick.
