The Hibiki-class ocean surveillance ship is a class of surveillance ships operated by the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force.[1][2] The ships have a small-waterplane-area twin hull (SWATH) design.[3]

History

The Hibiki class was developed in response to the launch of the Шаблон:Sclass2s by the Soviet Union, and their deployments in the waters near Japan.[4] The Defense Agency announced plans to develop a surveillance ship in 1989.[4]

The first Hibiki-class vessel was commissioned on January 23, 1991, and the second, Harima, on March 10, 1992.[5]

Construction

All three vessels of the class have been built by Mitsui Engineering & Shipbuilding at its Tamano shipyard.[1]

Operations

Hibiki and Harima operate out of Kure, Hiroshima.[4] The United States and Japan reportedly split the costs of operating the Hibiki vessels, which approximately US$20 million per year.[4]

Characteristics

Hibiki-class vessels have a beam of Шаблон:Convert, a top speed of Шаблон:Convert, and a standard range of Шаблон:Convert.[6] Each vessel has a crew of 40, including five American civilian technicians, and a flight deck for helicopters to operate off of.[1][7] They are able to deploy on station for 90 days.[7]

The vessels have an AN/UQQ-2 Surveillance Towed Array Sensor System (SURTASS), which is installed in the United States.[2][7] Data from the sensors is relayed through the Defense Satellite Communications System, and processed and shared with the United States.[7] The data is fed into the Integrated Undersea Surveillance System.[4]

Propulsion is provided by four Mitsubishi S6U-MPTK diesel electric engines.[3] The third ship was equipped with a Daihatsu diesel MTU.[8]
