Natsuzuki (夏月; "Summer Moon") was an Akizuki-class destroyer of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) during the final stages of World War II. The ship was armed with eight 10-centimetre (3.9 in) dual-purpose guns. Completed in early 1945, the ship never left home waters. She was surrendered to the Allies at the end of the war and used to repatriate Japanese troops until 1947. Mid-year, the destroyer was turned over to Great Britain and was scrapped in early 1948.
