The Battleship Nagumo is the only Meiji-class battleship to remain in service this day. Constructed in 723 A.S., it was designed as part of Kusari's emphasis on centralization and self-preservation known as Sakoku, functioning as a strategically placed deterrent against any hostile intrusion coming from the neighbouring Tau systems. While it could be classified as a historical monument due to its age and uniqueness, the Kusari government have chosen not to promote the battleship in this way, as to them it is seen as a failure.
The Nagumo was the last Meiji-class battleship scheduled to be decommissioned and be replaced by the new Bakumatsu-class Battleships that were being produced by Samura. As its militarily vital position in Kusari was one of great importance, the Nagumo could not be moved until another ship was deployed to take its place. The rising tensions in the Tau borderworlds prevented such a replacement from being constructed. Instead, the Battleship Nagasaki briefly replaced Nagumo, allowing Samura to refit the ship and shore up the structural weaknesses that led to the discontinuation of the Meiji class. Nagumo then resumed her assigned station, freeing up the Nagasaki for action in the Tau borderworlds.
Over time its mandate has grown from Sakoku-based principles,to include the prevention of the trafficking of cardamine from the Tau systems by Golden Chrysanthemums, protecting Nansei Research Station from attacks by the Blood Dragons, and maintaining Kusari law in Kyushu.
The Nagumo was a major actor in the battle of the Tau-29 gate in early 823 A.S., the first against the Imperial restoration forces led by the IKN. Although ultimately forced to retreat by the enemy, the performance of the Nagumo and its battlegroup managed to slow down the momentum of the IKN forces, and allowed the Republic to hold most of the Kyushu system for the remainder of the year.
With the recent push into Kyushu by the Imperial fleets, the Nagumo wound up face to face with the far more modern Nagasaki. Regardless, the captain's first instinct was to order the Exiles to surrender, before opening fire. The engagement ended inconclusively after the Republican battlecruiser Akatsuki refused to fire on their own brethren, and defected after the battle. With the rest of the Republic forces, Nagumo hastily fell back to regroup at Tsushima, where they were then ordered to reposition themselves in orbit of Planet Kyushu in order to assist the Kusari State Police in calming the growing riots. This order may also serve as a public face-saving attempt, as the KNF is not keen to admit their fleet retreated so easily. However, with the visible damage to the Nagumo's exterior hull, the true purpose of its fallback is transparent.
Nevertheless, the Nagumo was a major actor in the battle for the Tau-29 gate. Although ultimately forced to retreat, the actions of this battlegroup managed to slow down the momentum of the IKN forces, and allowed the Republic to hold most of the Kyushu system for the remainder of the year. The Nagumo held the lines of defence over Planet Kyushu's orbital area, and actively organized the military actions against Imperial forces in the system. Without the arrival of a sufficient aid however, due to fighting elsewhere on the fringes of Kusari, it was only a matter of time before the venerable Nagumo was defeated again.
Forced to relinquish control of Planet Kyushu space, a large uprising was able to successfully take place planetside before the Imperials could even secure the surrounding trade lanes. Debilitated and weary of the prolonged fighting, the Battleship Nagumo was ordered to fall back and operate from off to the side. Its current mission is to make any and all efforts to halt the IKN from reaching the capital homeworld, until greater reinforcements are able to arrive.
