In 2038, a mysterious fleet of warships, who have lurked around the world in the decades decades before, goes on the offensive against humanity. Modelled after ships that appeared in World War II, but possessing weaponry far superior to those in humanity's possession and protected by an indestructible barrier immune to whatever we have to throw at them, humanity quickly loses control of the seas and our military forces are annihilated in the desperate battles against them. The result was a world where humanity's presence in the oceans was no more, with communication via the seas cut off and humans isolated from each other, blockaded by the "Fleet of Fog". | In 2038, a mysterious fleet of warships, who have lurked around the world in the decades decades before, goes on the offensive against humanity.

ARP Kirishima — Japanese special premium Tier V battleship.
A Fleet of Fog battleship modeled after the Imperial Japanese Navy's 4th Kongō-class battleship, Kirishima. She was first seen engaging I-401, along with Haruna, at the battle in Yokosuka Bay. She was eventually defeated by I-401 due to her "trump card" backfiring under her rival's tactics. This warship has been modeled after Kirishima as she appears in "ARPEGGIO OF BLUE STEEL -ARS NOVA-."
