I was examining my Shapeway Takao Class Heavy Cruisers and noticed that Chokai is missing her 3rd or C turret and in its place is AA mounts. I searched on Combined Fleets and Wikipedia but couldn't find any information and wondering if you guys can help.
Did she ever in her operational history lose the 3rd turret?
Maya landed her C turret as part of her conversion to an antiaircraft cruiser. A similar refit was planned for Chokai, but she was lost in battle before it could take place.
