''Akatsuki'' (暁 Dawn?) was the twenty-first ''[[Fubuki]]''-class destroyer, or the lead ship of the ''Akatsuki'' class (if that sub-class is regarded as a separate class), built for the Imperial Japanese Navy in the inter-war period. When introduced into service, these ships were the most powerful destroyers in the world. They remained formidable weapons systems well into the Pacific War. | ''Akatsuki'' (暁 Dawn?) was the twenty-first ''[[Fubuki]]''-class destroyer, or the lead ship of the ''Akatsuki'' class (if that sub-class is regarded as a separate class), built for the Imperial Japanese Navy in the inter-war period.
