Japan's newest submarine Jingei (515) was launched today at the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) shipyard in Kobe. It is the third boat of the new Taigei-class, the latest class of advanced diesel electric submarines (SSK) for the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF).
Jingei means fast swimming whale in Japanese and was once used as the name of a submarine tender of the Imperial Japanese Navy. Taigei-class submarines are named after whales or large fishes.
The first submarine of the class, Taigei (meaning Great Whale) was launched by MHI in October 2020 and commissioned with the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force in March 2022. Kawasaki Heavy Industries (KHI) launched the second one, Hakugei, in October 2021. Jingei is set to be delivered to the JMSDF in 2023.
