Yukikaze was a Kagero-class destroyer of the Imperial Japanese Navy and fought in many of the major battles of the Pacific War, including Midway, the Guadalcanal campaign and Leyte Gulf. In April 1945 she escorted the battleship Yamato during Operation Ten-Ichi-Go. She was one of very few Japanese destroyers to survive the war and was later handed over to the Republic of China. Tamiya's 1:350 kit from 2008 depicts her as she appeared during that operation.
