Tokusetsu Kosakukan
About Tokusetsu Kosakukan
The IJN called converted repair ships "Tokusetsu-kosakukan". Their main task was to make temporal repairs on damaged vessels. Six merchant ships and one seized ship were used as Tokusetsu-kosakukan between 1937 and 1945. "Kagu Maru" was removed from the navy list before the outbreak of the Pacific War. "Urakami Maru" was designated for engaging in salvage services.
