Fushimi-class gunboat

The Fushimi-class gunboats (伏見型砲艦, Fushimi-gata hōkan) were a class of riverine gunboats of the Imperial Japanese Navy.

The class consisted of two ships, Fushimi (伏見) and Sumida (隅田).

[2] Ships of the class had a standard displacement of 304 tonnes (299 long tons), 344 tonnes (339 long tons) at trial, and 368 tonnes (362 long tons) at full load.

[1] The class was propelled by a turbine-powered, oil-fired engine, which generated 1,600 kilowatts (2,200 shp), giving them a top speed of 17 knots (31 km/h; 20 mph).

[3] Both ships, Fushimi and Sumida, were laid down in 1939, and were completed in 1939 and 1940, respectively.
