In order to cover a wide ocean with a small number of vessels, JMSA began considering the shipping operation of air-sea rescue helicopters.[1]At first, S\u014dya was built as a prototype in the plan of FY1977. Then, from the supplementary budget for the same year, construction of this class was started.[1]This class is roughly based on its prototype, S\u014dya, it is the same as having a long forecastle, but her icebreaking capability was omitted. In order to operate helicopter with these small ships, antiroll tanks and fixed fin stabilizers were set up. Since this class were built for a long time, the design are slightly different.[1] In particular, the overall improvement was added to the design of the last two vessels, so the United States Naval Institute dealt them as a separate group, Ryukyu class.[2]Like S\u014dya, these ships are not only a helicopter platform but also a command ship, so an operations room, OIC section, is installed adjacent to the bridge. The ability of Command and control is improved sequentially. Currently, Heli-TV system are installed to enable transmission of TV signals directly from a helicopter to OIC section. There are also SATCOM system to relay these TV signals to headquarters onshore.[3]In the earliest ships, one L\/60 Bofors 40 mm gun and one L\/70 Oerlikon 20 mm cannon were set up. But both of them became obsolete, so later, 40\u00a0mm guns were replaced by L\/90 Oerlikon 35 mm guns, and 20\u00a0mm cannons were replaced by JM61-M 20 mm rotary cannons. And in the Ryukyu class, the 20\u00a0mm rotary cannons are upgraded to JM61-RFS, remotely operated version with an optical director.[4]In the early days, Bell 212 air-sea rescue helicopters were deployed as the shipboard helicopters. Then, with the aging of the Bell 212, they were superseded by the Sikorsky S-76C\/D by 2016.[5]In service[edit]These ships are operated as command ships of each Regional Coast Guard Headquarters flotilla or task force, and conducting many search and rescue operations.[6]In the Incident of Suspicious Boats off the Coast of Noto Peninsula, Chikuzen acted as a forward operating base of the Special Security Team (SST). She also fired warning shots by her JM61-M.[7]With their high-endurance and aviation patrol capability, these ships also attend to overseas dispatch including counter-piracy operations in the Strait of Malacca.[6]18 January, 2023 Echigo ran aground on, or struck a reef off Kashiwazaki, Niigata Prefecture, Honshu, in the Sea of Japan. later anchored.[8]Ships in the class[edit]References[edit]^ a b c d Asanaga, Youichirou; \u014ctsuka, Yukitaka (1995).
