Originally Kuma-class light cruisers, Ooi and Kitakami were extensively remodeled, most of their mid superstructure was removed to make way for a huge number of torpedo tubes, and thus were reclassified as torpedo cruisers.
The Kitakami-class torpedo cruisers are premium ships in the game, purchaseable only with gold.
Not to be confused with the Kuma-Class Light Cruiser.
Although a way of saying Kitakami's and Ooi's Class might be Kitakami, a more formal way of this class is "Kuma Class Torpedo Cruisers."
