    Ships are identified on the original print as (from front to back) Mogami, Mikuma and Kumano. However, at that time Sentai 7 consisted of Kumano (one funnel band, as on ship in foreground), Mikuma (2 funnel bands) and Suzuya (3 funnel bands). Accordingly, this photo may show those three ships, in the order listed.

    The Dec 2008 comment appears to be correct. Warship International No. 3, 1984 also says that the three ships are Kumano, Mikuma and Suzuya, from front to back.
