Post by SargeantTex »

its a shame the IJN underutilized their battleships though it was good for the allies I use mine everywhere in the game I used my Ise,Fuso,and Nagatos' numerous times from bombarding guadalcanal to bombarding northern Australia ports!!

On the related website from the guy who colorized the picture, it's definitely Mutsu. In addition, I have the same picture but in black & white in the Kure Maritime Museum book "Battleships and battlecruisers" photo album page 182 with the same "Mutsu" caption.
