In the game's words
How to use it
The Tekkousen is the most powerful naval unit in the Japanese fleet. It has a large amount of hitpoints, a good range, and a big attack. The Tekkousen is good against buildings, pounding villages from the sea. However, it is vulnerable to other ships or land-based artillery.
History
The Korean kobukson (“turtle ship”) is typically considered as the first armored boat, a precursor to the American ironclads of the eighteenth century. Likewise, the Japanese later used armored ships in their feudal wars of the sixteenth century, as rival daimyo battled each other for land and sea supremacy. Daimyo Oda Nobunaga constructed six tekkousen (“iron armor ships”) for his personal navy. These boats were protected by 3-inch armor plating, and armed with multiple cannons and high caliber rifles. They were utilized during the invasion of Korea in 1592-1598.
