Attack submarine

An attack submarine or hunter-killer submarine is a submarine specifically designed for the purpose of attacking and sinking other submarines, surface combatants and merchant vessels.

See JS Seiryū and Attack submarine

Ceremonial ship launching

Ceremonial ship launching involves the performance of ceremonies associated with the process of transferring a vessel to the water.

See JS Seiryū and Ceremonial ship launching

Diesel–electric powertrain

A diesel–electric transmission, or diesel–electric powertrain, is a transmission system for vehicles powered by diesel engines in road, rail, and marine transport.

See JS Seiryū and Diesel–electric powertrain

Electronic warfare support measures

In military telecommunications, electronic support (ES) or electronic support measures (ESM) gather intelligence through passive "listening" to electromagnetic radiations of military interest.

See JS Seiryū and Electronic warfare support measures

Harpoon (missile)

The Harpoon is an all-weather, over-the-horizon, anti-ship missile manufactured by McDonnell Douglas (now Boeing Defense, Space & Security).

See JS Seiryū and Harpoon (missile)

Keel laying

Laying the keel or laying down is the formal recognition of the start of a ship's construction.

See JS Seiryū and Keel laying

Kobe

Kobe (Kōbe), officially, is the capital city of Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan.

See JS Seiryū and Kobe

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries

Opening ceremony

An opening ceremony, grand opening, or ribbon-cutting ceremony marks the official opening of a newly constructed location or the start of an event.

See JS Seiryū and Opening ceremony

Radar

Radar is a system that uses radio waves to determine the distance (ranging), direction (azimuth and elevation angles), and radial velocity of objects relative to the site.

See JS Seiryū and Radar

Sōryū-class submarine

The Sōryū-class submarines (16SS) are diesel-electric attack submarines. The first boat in the class entered service with the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force in 2009. The design is an evolution of the, from which it can most easily be distinguished by its X-shaped stern combination diving planes and rudders. JS Seiryū and Sōryū-class submarine are Sōryū-class submarines.

Ship commissioning

Ship commissioning is the act or ceremony of placing a ship in active service and may be regarded as a particular application of the general concepts and practices of project commissioning.

See JS Seiryū and Ship commissioning

Sonar

Sonar (sound navigation and ranging or sonic navigation and ranging) is a technique that uses sound propagation (usually underwater, as in submarine navigation) to navigate, measure distances (ranging), communicate with or detect objects on or under the surface of the water, such as other vessels.

See JS Seiryū and Sonar

Stirling engine

A Stirling engine is a heat engine that is operated by the cyclic expansion and contraction of air or other gas (the working fluid) by exposing it to different temperatures, resulting in a net conversion of heat energy to mechanical work.

See JS Seiryū and Stirling engine

Towed array sonar

A towed array sonar is a system of hydrophones towed behind a submarine or a surface ship on a cable.

See JS Seiryū and Towed array sonar

Type 89 torpedo

The Type 89 torpedo (development name G-RX2) is a Japanese submarine-launched homing torpedo produced by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

See JS Seiryū and Type 89 torpedo

Yen and yuan sign

The yen and yuan sign (¥) is a currency sign used for the Japanese yen and the Chinese yuan currencies when writing in Latin scripts.
