If you look in the Museum at the Japan nation, there is an "Aux Cruiser Aikoku Class" that files a Japanese naval war flag, which has multiple guns basically out in the open. A little further down the list is a "Cargo-Passenger Freighter, aka: "JP Aux Cruiser", that has a gun on the bow sprit, and another on the after deck. Look closer, and you'll see two bigger guns hidden in slots on each side of the ship, one forward quarter, one after quarter, which might be considered a "Q" ship, but some would argue that it's not, because it flies the Japanese naval war flag...

The purple line is the International Date Line, as KM mentions, but the red lines are what shows the divide between Northern Pacific, CenPac, SoWestPac and southern Pacific areas. The yellow lines are 15 degrees apart from each other, and denote where the time zones would be, approximately, geographically, not the way man draws them with all the zig-zags of a convoy dodging land masses... We've been debating how to put the letter designations in for the +10 or -11 designations, such as "K" time, etc., and have not come up with anything acceptable yet... All of those lines are only visible at certain zoom levels on the NavMap.
