KONGO CLASS GUIDED MISSILE DESTROYER BRIEF - NO.61

The Kongō class (こんごう型護衛艦, Kongō-gata Goeikan) of guided missile destroyers in the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force are equipped with the Aegis Combat System, and is the first of few ship classes outside the United States to have that capability. Following a decision made in December 2003, Japan is upgrading their Kongo-class destroyers with Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System. The upgrade involves a series of installations and flight tests to take place from 2007 to 2010. JS Kongo was the first ship to have the BMD upgrade installed.

    It’s funny when talking to other maritime enthusiasts they think of the Kōngo class as a WWII battleship, not realizing they’re a pre-WWI Battlecruiser, last foreign built ship for the Japanese. I also noticed a lot of those names you listed as being former WWI/II era ships. Appears as they reuse names as well.

    The Japanese tend to name their ships after mountains, rivers, prefectures and legends, and those names don’t change often

Shōkaku (1939) Zuikaku (1939) Zuihō class. Zuihō (1940) Shōhō (1941 SEEMS ABOUT RIGHT!, LIVE LONG JAPAN!
