==History==
  −
As the first Super-Dreadnought from Japan, Fusou was finished in 1915, also the first battleship to be designed and built entirely in-house. As time passed, her design showed numerous faults that outweighed her merits despite initially high expectations ("Fusou" is the ancient name for Japan itself), notably a lack of defence as a result of spreading six main turrets along the center line of the ship. To cope with these errors, she was modified and modernized time and time again, leading to her distinctively-shaped main bridge which exceeded 50m in height. 
     −
She was standing-by at mainland Japan during the opening stage of WW2 along with Yamashiro, but as the war turned poorly for Japan, she was regrouped into the IJN's front-line attack force and came under the command of Admiral [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sh%C5%8Dji_Nishimura Shoji Nishimura]. Her last conflict was the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Leyte_Gulf#The_Battle_of_Surigao_Strait_.2825_October.29 Battle of Surigao Strait], where the Nishimura fleet was T-crossed by an allied fleet (USN + RAN) upon breaching into Leyte Gulf; Fusou received a heavy blow and her hull split into two following an explosion of her ammunition storage. The battle is said to be one of the most major losses for the IJN throughout the war.

Remodeling her in-game will turn her into an Aviation Battleship. This renovation stems from a stillborn plan to turn the Fusou-class into Aviation Battleships after the loss of four carriers during the Battle of Midway.  However, the Fusou-class were withdrawn as candidates for the conversion, which was instead performed on the Ise-class battleships.

|Using six twin turrets rather than four triple turrets required a longer ship, 60% of the ship's length, & thus, increased armor. As turrets No.3 & 4 were not superfiring, they further increased the length.
 +
 
 +
As turrets No.3 & 4 were mounted amidships along the ship's centerline, they had restricted firing arcs, & forced the boiler rooms to be placed between them non-ideally & with limited space. This required extra insulation & air conditioning in the magazines of turrets No.3 & 4 to protect them from the boiler rooms' heat.

Half the turrets were classified as prone to explode when hit.<br>

Firing turrets No.3 & 4 together would create blast waves that affected the entire ship. (''these two do not seem to be on wikipedia'')
