Russian battleship “Peresvet”, sunk at Port Arthur in December 1904.
Another one of eight Russian pre-dreadnought battleships captured by the Imperial Japanese Navy during the Russo-Japanese War. It had foguht in the Battle of the Yellow Sea but was subsequently shelled by japanese artillery in December 1904 during the Siege of Port Arthur. After the war had ended in October 1909, the Japanese raised and repared the ship and incorporated it into the Imperial Japanese Navy. It was renamed the Sagami, named after the ancient Japanese province of Sagami, now a part of Kanagawa prefecture.
During World War I Russia and Japan had become allies, resulting in the return of the ship to the Russians on April 4, 1916 where it resumed it’s former name of Peresvet.
It was later sunk en route by mines laid by the German U-73 on January 4, 1917.
