【海の防衛の要】護衛艦いずもに乗艦！知られざる海上自衛隊の世界 | ガリレオX 第143回

Broadcast in February 2017 We are pleased to present the 143rd episode of "Galileo X," the memorable first time television cameras have been allowed on a training voyage of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force's state-of-the-art destroyer, the Izumo. At 248 meters long, the Izumo is the largest ship in the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. Its flight deck, known as the "full-length deck," is large enough for five helicopters to take off and land simultaneously. Furthermore, its hangar is large enough to accommodate 50 large vehicles, and contributed to the transport of supplies and personnel during the Kumamoto earthquake. This is a masterpiece episode of "Galileo X," offering a glimpse into the rarely seen training voyage of a destroyer! ★Main Coverage ・Destroyer Izumo ・Masayuki Kikuchi (Military Photojournalist)
