Naniwa-class cruiser

The two were protected cruisers operated by the Imperial Japanese Navy. Both participated in numerous actions during the First Sino-Japanese War and in the Russo-Japanese War.
==Background==
The revolutionary design of the “Elswick” protected cruiser, initially developed as a private-venture by Armstrong Whitworth in the mid-1880s, and implemented in the cruiser ''Esmeralda'' for the Chilean Navy (subsequently purchased by Japan as ) was of great interest to Japan because of her high speed, powerful armament, armor protection and relatively low cost, especially since the Imperial Japanese Navy lacked the resources at the time to purchase modern pre-dreadnought battleships.〔 Brooke, ''Warships for Export'' page 58-60 〕 This was a period of increasing tension with the Empire of China prior to the First Sino-Japanese War, and Japan lacked the ships necessary to counter the Chinese Beiyang Fleet.
Pioneering Japanese naval architect Sasō Sachū requested that Armstrong Whitworth make modifications to the ''Esmeralda'' design to customize it for Japanese requirements, and two vessels, ''Naniwa'' and ''Takachiho'' were ordered under the 1883 fiscal year budget, by Naval Minister Kawamura Sumiyoshi. When completed, ''Naniwa'' was considered the most advanced and most powerful cruiser in the world.〔Jentsura, ''Warships of the Imperial Japanese Navy'';〕〔Evans, ''Kaigun'', p. 15.〕 However, the extremely fast development of technology, weaponry and armor in this field of ship design meant that the supremacy of this design was very short.
''Naniwa'' and ''Takachiho'' together cost £546,980. Prince Yamashina Kikumaro attended the launch, and afterwards had dinner with Baron William Armstrong, who made a toast that "the ship was destined to the service of a country which was likely never to come into collision with our own peace-loving country".
