==Trivia==
This gun is the modified version of the twin-gun ''Model B'' which was used by Ayanami-class and Akatsuki-class destroyers. The main difference between Type A and Type B is that instead of the former's elevation range of −5 ° to +40 °, type B's range is upgraded to 75 °, which is required for the more complicated and effective AA systems installed on newer destroyers. Type B armor, however, was too thin to withstand heavy seas and splinter damage, thus the Type B Kai was introduced, adding more protection.
First mounted on {{Class|Hatsuharu}} destroyers, but its effectiveness is unknown.
