Naka as of 1935:
less than a year after her main reconstruction Naka underwent a second, minor, one; the flying-off platform was removed and the quadruple 13mm machine gun mount was shifted back in front of the bridge, also the 3-inch (76mm) anti-air guns placed abreast the second funnel where replaced by twin 13mm machine guns

Sendai as of 1934:
refitted from june 13th 1933 to january 25th 1934 Sendai ended up looking even more different from her sisters, other than still beign the only ship of her class sporting the curved bow she had her foremast reduced in height, two 1,5 meter navigation rangefinder where fitted on both sides of the bridge, two extra lookout posts where also added just below them, the derrick fitted on the mainmast was a pole one instead of a built-up type like those fitted on Naka and Jintsu.
