The DDH22 is intended as a replacement to the
decommissioning of Shirane-class destroyers, thereby reducing the size of
MSDF's overall force. Furthermore, the ship lacks potential offensive
capabilities, like a ski-jump ramp which would allow it to be deployed as a
light aircraft carrier. The Defense Ministry has also specified the destroyer's
mission scope and offensive limitations, insisting that "the ship will be
incapable of having fighter jets land on and take-off from the deck".
Cad picture of the kit - just dont call it an aircraft carrier!
The 22DDH could possibly use the F-35B carrier-based
aircraft, and so might be considered as a light aircraft carrier. First, it is
necessary to meet thermal performance of the deck, the condition of the weight
of the aircraft carrier take-off and landing is light. Since laying an enhanced
deck is possible, the thermal performance of the deck would not be a problem
for Japan. The maximum take-off weight of the F-35B will reach 27 tons, but for
take-off and landing of large carrier-based aircraft, this is also not an
issue.
The 22DDH could possibly accommodate 12 or more F-35B carrier-based
aircraft. The F-35B fighter has a vertical take-off and landing capability, so
that even though the 22DDH is not equipped with a catapult, there is no problem
operating the F-35B with flat deck without a ski-jump. The new
"22DDH" is larger medium-sized regular aircraft carriers of the
former Imperial Navy that attacked Pearl Harbour.
