JS Akashi (Japanese: あかし; Pennant number: AGS-5107) is an oceanographic research ship built for the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, named after the Akashi Coast.[1][2] She is the fourth ship to bear this name, after the Imperial Japanese Navy's protected cruiser Akashi, the repair ship Akashi, and the JMSDF's research ship Akashi.[3]

Construction and career

Akashi was laid down at the Enora Plant of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' Shimonoseki Shipyard in May 2023[contradictory], as part of the JMSDF's Mid-Term Defense Program for the fisical year 2022.[4] She was christened and launched on 29 May 2025,[5][6] costing 28.3 billion yen during the vessel's construction.[7][8] After a period of fitting out and sea trials, Akashi was commissioned on 9 March 2026.[3][9] She will be deployed to the Yokosuka Naval Base, replacing JS Wakasa of the 1st Oceanographic Research Squadron under the Oceanography ASW Support Command.[3]
