- The Mogami-class multi-function mine warfare frigate, designated 30FFM, is a state-of-the-art escort ship specialized for advanced minesweeping missions, equipped with a mine countermeasure sonar, an autonomous underwater mine detector UUV, and a mine clearance unmanned surface vehicle USV.
- Improving stealth has also been considered, and most of the equipment is installed on the inside of the sloping ship's sides. The ship's appearance is distinct from that of previous escort ships, with a distinctive unicorn-shaped composite antenna and a pyramidal mast equipped with multi-function radars on all four sides.
