Her combat gear includes a twin-cannonturret held with two handles on the sides and a purse-like strap, with a backpack-like mount for a smokestack that carries swing-arms for more turrets. On her thighs, she has additional anti-air guns strapped in garter belt-like arrangements.
History
The historical IJN Hagikaze was the escort of the IJN Kaga during the ill-fated Battle of Midway, and both rescued survivors and ultimately scuttled the carrier. She later went on to be sunk during the humiliating Battle of Vella Gulf, where American radar (and the Japanese lack thereof) resulted in a night battle where American forces achieved total surprise and were never struck by a single round of enemy fire. She sank alongside Kawakaze and her sister-ship Arashi, while Shigure escaped.
