[From Hiraga, member of the Shipbuilding Department, to Koyama, Head of the Shipbuilding Department] “Concerning Preparations for Steel Materials for the New Battleship”

AI summary (β)
An explanation/opinion statement dated March 27, Taishō 2, from Hiraga, member of the Shipbuilding Department, to Koyama, Head of the Shipbuilding Department, discussing “Concerning Preparations for Steel Materials for the New Battleship.” Regarding the scheduled keel-laying and launch of the new battleship (No. 3 Battleship), it notes that, under an informal agreement with the steelworks, approximately 4,000 tons can be ordered by the end of March of the following year, but that more than 8,000 additional tons of material will still be required, and points out the risk that the launch date may become difficult to schedule because of the convergence of naval steel-material supply and private-sector orders. It also touches on the weight breakdown of nickel steel plates.
