Tanikaze (谷風; Valley Wind) was one of 19 Kagerō-class destroyers built for the Imperial Japanese Navy during the 1930s, which saw extensive action throughout World War II, spending her early war career operating alongside Japanese aircraft carriers. Tanikaze was damaged by American dive bomber aircraft during the Battle of Midway, 6 June 1942, and helped to sink the light cruiser USS Helena at the battle of Kula Gulf on 6 July 1943. Tanikaze was eventually torpedoed and sunk by the submarine USS Harder on 9 June 1944.
