Each of them are 57 mm and they are very well placed. The Myogi A/B hull has once again armored decks in both the bow and the stern. Now, considering the Myogi’s A/B and C hulls have some big differences (last remnant of the era of the awful A hull Japanese battleships), I will treat them separately. Tier IV Myogi (A and B hull)Īs a certain Jedi would say, this is where the fun begins. While they protect a big part of the front citadel, they are not foolproof so don’t rely on them too much. Also, the armored decks are both below the waterline. Now, the Kawachi suffers from the same problem as the Mikasa.Īs you can see on the picture above, the upper parts of the athwartships are still exposed and are partially above the waterline. These armored decks are 76 mm thick and are at the same level as her extended belt of 102 mm. The Kawachi like the previous ships has armored decks on both the bow and the stern. First, they are below the waterline which already reduces their effectiveness and second, the upper part of the athwartships on both sides is exposed which means that there is a high chance that the shells that will penetrate the bow or the stern will also be able to reach the citadel. These armored decks have however 2 problems. On both sides, the extremity is 51 mm while the more central part is 76 mm. Mikasa has 2 armored decks, one in the bow and one in the stern.
