After the War, the Japanese decided to salvage ''Novik'', and take her as a prize of war; she entered commission into the Imperial Japanese Navy on 20 August 1906 as ''Suzuya''. Although the Japanese wanted to use ''Suzuya'' as a scout cruiser, her original boilers were heavily damaged, replaced by only 8 boilers, as opposed to her original 12. Therefore she was no more able to attain the speeds she was famous for, and the Japanese quickly reclassified her to a 2nd class coastal defence vessel, a role she fulfilled until scrapped on 1 April 1913. | After the War, the Japanese decided to salvage ''Novik'', and take her as a prize of war; she entered commission into the Imperial Japanese Navy on 20 August 1906 as ''Suzuya''.
