KISDF port

''The rebuilding of the KISDF cruisers begins. Kageryū, Karyū and EY lie in shipyards, being repaired after the Hugh battle. EY would then be sent to the AFOH where he would be safe. During this repair, the cruisers go under small rebuilds. Karyū had her flight deck more armoured to prevent another shell or missile from penetrating it. The others had 2 Torpedo Tubes each removed and for EY, an additional 40 cm twin turret was added, as well as a 30.5 cm gun aft. Kageryū retained her usual guns, but had 2 AAA guns added to improve defence. Additional armour was added to both cruisers. The repairs would take a few weeks, but it could be done. ''

''Meanwhile, additional Maru Y, Kamiryū and Emden class ships were built to strengthen the KISDF. Also, a new class of cruiser was being built. Based on the third rebuild of the Kageryū, it would be a design that would be easy and cheap to build quickly, as well as very well armoured and armed.''
