h4. History
In real life, she was commissioned in early 1943 but missed out on the battle of Empress Augusta Bay due to airstrike damage just hours before the main night battle.
Later participated in the battle of Leyte Gulf where she, alongside [[Reno (Azur Lane)|]], stood by the stricken carrier [[Princeton (Azur Lane)|]], suffering extensive damage from the explosions that gutted the carrier.
Repaired after two months, she returned to service only for her to suffer another airstrike in Okinawa, which finally put her out of action for the rest of the war. She thereafter participated in repatriation efforts and paid off in 1947.
