Kashino was an unusual cargo ship built to transport over 60-ton gun turrets for the world's largest battleships – Yamato and Musashi. It was the only vessel of its kind in the world, in service since 1940. Besides 460 mm gun turrets, it also carried ammunition and military equipment to navy shipyards. Kashino was sunk by the American submarine USS Growler in June 1942.
