Yoizuki was a Japanese destroyer whose keel was laid in 1943, launched in September 1944, and commissioned in the Imperial Japanese Navy in January 1945. The length of the ship at the time of launching was 134.2 m, width 11.6 m, and the actual full displacement - 3,700 tons. Destroyer Yoizuki's top speed was up to 33 knots. The main armament at the time of the launch was 8 100 mm guns in four twin turrets, and the secondary armament was 15 25 mm cannons, depth charge launchers and four 610 mm torpedo tubes.
Yoizuki was the tenth Akizuki class destroyer. Destroyers of this type were designed as anti-aircraft destroyers, intended to protect high-speed Japanese aircraft carriers, which resulted in the arming with 100 mm universal artillery and weak - by Japanese standards - torpedo armament. Initially, 55 ships of this type were planned to be launched, but due to problems with the supply of raw materials, only 12 Akizuki-class destroyers entered service. However, they received very positive reviews due to their long range, high speed, good stability and sea prowess. They were considered to be one of the best destroyers of World War II. Yoizuki (side number 363) initially served in the home waters and in February 1945 supported the air defense of Yokosuka against a B-29 bomber raid. In June of the same year, he climbed a mine, but suffered no serious damage. Until the end of the war, it was not used in combat. After its completion, it was used to transport Japanese soldiers from bases in the Pacific, and in 1947 it was handed over to China - as war reparations - and renamed Fen Yang. From 1949 in service with the Taiwanese navy, but soon placed in reserve. By 1963, it was scrapped.
