Notice about Coastal Defense Ships Classifications:

Due to a certain content mod's decision, Shumushu-class and Etorofu-class was briefly classified as Destroyer Escorts on the grounds that they're more heavily armed than the Western patrol gunboat (at the expense of crew comfortability, as with many other IJN ships), neglecting the fact that true destroyer escorts have torpedoes and have twice the displacement of the coastal defense ships, effectively making them closer to Satsuki and Asashio in practice.

We've already convinced the mod about the hull classification [|here], and the proper class will be restored shortly.
