Опознать можем?

Процессс идеттт...Mogami-class frigate Agano (FFM-6) is moving to the outfitting quay after the naming and launching ceremony. 21 Dec 2022.

Modification work turning Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force helicopter destroyer JS Kaga into an F-35B aircraft carrier are nearing completion at a dock in Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture, located in the western part of Japan’s Honshu Island.

Kaga, the second ship of the Izumo-class DDH, has been primarily designed to carry SH-60 helicopters and to operate as a core ship in anti-submarine warfare. In 2018, however, the Japanese government decided to modify the Izumo-class DDH to allow it to operate F-35B fighter jets. The main purpose of this is to strengthen air defense capabilities, especially in the Pacific region, and to complement the U.S. Navy’s LHA/LHD operations with the F-35B.

The modifications are also set to strengthen Japan’s presence in the Indo-Pacific during the JMSDF’s Indo-Pacific deployments, or long-term deployments for Izumo-class DDHs and other destroyers in the Indo-Pacific region that have been conducted for the past several years.

The modification of the Izumo-class will mainly involve changing the shape of the bow section from the current trapezoidal shape to a square and applying a heat-resistant coating to the flight deck.

The first ship, Izumo, already completed its first modification in 2021 and performed landing and takeoff tests with the U.S. Marine Corps’ F-35B. The modification of Izumo is divided into two phases. In the first phase, the flight deck was coated with a heat-resistant coating, and in the second phase, the shape of the bow section will be modified. The second phase of modification is scheduled to begin in March 2025, with work to be completed by early 2027.

Набрёл на итальянский сайт,

sottomarino - запрос, "подводная лодка"

Для затравки:
I sottomarini giapponesi “Taigei (29SS), (たいげい, 大鯨), "Big Whale", derivati dai Sōryū (そうりゅう), "drago blu"
Много фоток, видео и картинок-иллюстраций разного размера и качества.

Вторая ПЛ типа Taigei - JS Hakugei (SS-514) - передана сегодня ВМС Японии.

Прикинул как было (эсминец-вертолетоносец) и как будет / может быть (легкий авианосец) - чисто визуально...

FFM-2 "Kumano" и FFM-4 "Mikuma", типа "Mogami", Март 2023.






Мож Потапычу что пригодится...

Под будущие "недоставайки" (во словечко придумал) - поправки и новые дополнения (недостающие данные значит).
