New Japanese warship addition "Sub Chaser No.13"

Nice, but I don't think 'No. 13' is part of the type name. I'm under the impression that they all had individual numbers, rather than names. If I'm right, it should just be 'Japanese Sub Chaser'.

I also believe that these were the same ships the Japanese themselves called 'Kaibokan', and came in two classes, called simply 'A' and 'B'.

I am somewhat vague on that, though. I don't have any of my books close enough to look at.
