The first photo is defiantly not a Kegero class destroyer but maybe a Myoko or Takao class Cruiser.

Rab is right. This picture shows not a Kagero class destroyer but the cruiser Mogami. (I am just building her with the corresponding Lion Roar set.)

Guys

I have removed what I believe is the offending image and added a Lion Roar poster for the kit plus an image to hand of the PE set.

Cheers

Sean, I wouldn't call the image 'offending', just out of place. Only trouble is, it's still out of place.

I see now why I thought it might have been the IJN Myoko . That triple 25 AA platform at the rear of the crane superstructure, is exactly the same as the one I had to scratchbuild, to bring my build to a 1944 version.
