IJN Kashima 1906
Kashima (鹿島 (戦艦) Kashima (senkan)?) was the second ship of the two Katori-class pre-dreadnought battleships built for the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) in the first decade of the 20th Century, the last to be built by British shipyards. Ordered just before the start of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904–05, the ship was completed a year after its end. She saw no combat during World War I, although the ship was present when Japan joined the Siberian Intervention in 1918. Kashima was disarmed and scrapped in 1923–24 in accordance with the terms of the Washington Naval Treaty of 1922.
