Descripción
These are typical Japanese warships with a heavy ASW battery consisting of ASROC and a Swedish-built ASW rocket launcher. They have a heavy gun armament but are otherwise lacking in ASuW and AAW capabilities, in line with the Japanese Maritime Self Defence Force's almost total emphasis on anti-submarine warfare. Four of the Takatsuki-class served from the mid-1960s through to the early-2000s. 2 of the class were upgraded in the early 80's with the removal of the DASH system and the after 127mm gun replaced with Harpoon launchers and a Phalanx CIWS.
