Legends_Battleship_Icon2.png Tsurugi — Japanese • Premium • Tier VII • Battleship.

According to the Japanese Navy's new development plan, future projects of battleships and battlecruisers didn't differ much from their current warships—even the battlecruisers featured the same speed as the planned Kii-class battleships. This went beyond the accepted Japanese naval tactics. To increase the speed and create a true battlecruiser, the design of the Number 13 battleship was modified, with one of the main turrets being sacrificed to achieve 35 to 37 knots.

Tsurugi was released as the final reward of a chain bundle during the Christmas on the Waves update.
