I don't seem to have these in my fleet list, but there were supposedly 41 of them. Am I missing something?
Thanks!

Aman,
I think they are classed as general IJN destroyer escorts rather than being given a listing of their own. I think they may be listed in the excel card printer as destroyer escorts but I'm away from that at the moment so I'm only going from memory. Hope this helped.

They were 3rd rate destroyers or destroyer escorts and were late war expedients due to lack of resources. Over a hundred were planed but only 18 Matsu (all listed in the spreadsheet) were completed with the first (Matsu herself) completed on 28 Apr 1944. The first Tachibana was completed on 20 Jan 1945 and only 14 were completed. most saw very limited use or no use before the end of the war.
As I mentioned I have included the 18 Matsu's in the spreadsheet, you can also use these stats for the Tachibana's as there is very little difference.

OK, so in game terms, they are Destroyer Escorts and I'll just use the generic DE listing.
