Unfortently the game dont provide any use for AI to use Torpedoes. Two takaos could send out s pread salvo of a total of 16 type 93`s, and because of that i dont think the Alaska would engage two Takaos on open water alone.
But at the end of the day the Alaska is a extreem cool ship, well armed, well armoured, even Japanese BB`s "exept yamoto) would proberbly stay well away from it.
It realy sux my main HD died on me. Simply dont have enough space right now to make long movies. But you have createt a fantastic ship, and the movie is well werth watching to... 
PS. Atleast i can say that the TAKAO is being reworked by me and peabody. And hopefully it will come out reworked with a few "blings" and a small surface campaign.

If an Alaska were to meet one, or two Takaos, the Takaos would still loose. As you could see in the video, I sank them well outside practical torpedo range. That would also be the case in real life. The 12 inch shell that the Alaska fired, had superior deck armor penetration than the 14 inch shell fired by the American battleships, and would as such be able to sink the Kongo, Fuso and Ise class, albeit with great risk, cause the Alaska was only protected against 12 inch shells and smaller.
