Kamikaze-class destroyer (1905)

The Kamikaze-class destroyers (""divine wind"") was a class of 32 torpedo boat destroyers (TBDs) of the Imperial Japanese Navy. The Kamikaze-class of destroyers were the first destroyers to be mass-produced in Japan. The class is also sometimes referred to as the Asakaze class. This class of destroyer should not be confused with the later Kamikaze-class destroyers built in 1922, which participated in the Pacific War.
