High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The two Tsukuba class cruisers (??? ????, Tsukuba-gata juny?senkan?) were battlecruisers operated by the Imperial Japanese Navy. They participated in numerous actions during the World War I. Construction of the Tsukuba class heavy cruisers was ordered under the 1904 Emergency Fleet Replenishment Budget of the Russo-Japanese War, spurred on by the unexpected loss of the Yashima to a naval mine in the early stages of the war. As the new class was the largest design yet attempted independently by Japanese naval shipyards, contemporary American military observers were surprised (and concerned) at the rapid pace of construction, and that Japan had learned to build such large and powerful warships so quickly, and in such a short time. However, with rapid advances in naval technology and with increasing budget constraints on the Imperial Japanese Navy in the period immediately after the end of the Russo-Japanese War, the project was scaled back, and in the end, only Tsukuba and Ikoma were built out of what was intended to be a class of six vessels.
