Product Description
DDG-171 Hatakaze is a third-generation missile destroyer of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, completed in March 1986.
A distinctive feature of this ship is that the Mk.13 missile launchers, which had been located at the rear of the previous Tachikaze class, have been moved to the bow, and bulwarks have been installed to protect them from waves.
The aft deck can accommodate helicopters, enhancing anti-submarine warfare capabilities.
It served on the front lines until the Aegis destroyer Maya was commissioned in March 2020, after which it was reclassified as a training ship (TV-3520).
It was assigned to the 1st Training Squadron at Kure Base and participated in training voyages both at home and abroad before being decommissioned in March 2025.
