ARP Takao — Japanese special premium Tier VIII cruiser.
The Tsundere Heavy Cruiser of the "Fleet of Fog". Modeled after Takao, the lead ship of the Imperial Japanese Navy's Takao-class cruisers. She loses a duel against I-401 while patrolling the Kumano Sea area. After her defeat, she decides to leave the "Fleet of Fog" to join the "Blue Steel" led by Gunzō Chihaya. Takao’s Mental Model has a great deal of curiosity, which led her to unwittingly collect a lot of information about humanity. This warship has been specially designed for World of Warships, and is modeled after Takao as she appears in "ARPEGGIO OF BLUE STEEL -ARS NOVA-".

Research
Optimal Configuration
Upgrades
The recommended upgrades for ARP Takao are as follows:
- Slot 1: Main Armaments Modification 1 keeps the guns and torpedo tubes active and firing.
- Slot 1: Damage Control System Modification 1 makes the ship more resistant to fires and flooding.
- Slot 3: Aiming Systems Modification 1 gives her guns more accuracy.

- Slot 5: Concealment System Modification 1 gets her detection down further allowing better stealth.

Signals
ARP Takao is — like Atago — far and away the fastest Tier VIII cruiser in the game; a Sierra Mike flag is recommended for captains who are interested in maximizing that speed. Zulu Hotel, Victor Lima, and India X-Ray flags are also recommended. Zulu Hotel will add additional commander experience, and Victor Lima and India X-Ray add an additional 2% to the fire chance of her main battery high explosive shells.
