Japanese cruiser Yahagi (1911)
IJN Yahagi (矢矧)　was the second vessel in the Chikuma class of 2nd class light cruisers of the Imperial Japanese Navy. Designed shortly after the Russo-Japanese War, it combined fairly heavy armament and displacement with newly-developed Parsons-type turbine engines, which gave it an incredible 26 knot speed.
