Imperial Japanese Navy

IJN - Imperial Japanese Navy - Empire of Japan. The Imperial Japanese Navy is the only nation that can use "Long Lance" oxygen-fueled torpedoes and it has some of the fastest ships in the game, as well as a large assortment of aircraft carriers and a line of ships designed specifically to use torpedoes as their primary weapons. The earlier Japanese Battleships are usually considered hard to use, as they lack both speed and range, hence, the Imperial Japanese Navy is largely considered a CV and torpedo nation. However, the IJN does have access to the Yamato class battleships, and later, the Super Yamato class battleships, mounting powerful, long ranged main batteries and the longest range of any anti-aircraft weaponry. IJN large-caliber naval guns are known for having a very high maximum angle, giving them the advantage of incredible ability to pierce armored ships, and they "gain" range when on the run due to the shells' long hangtime. However, the long shell hangtime also make them difficult to use. IJN aircraft are extremely fast, outrunning their counterparts of other nations.
