Sakura Class OPV 3D Model
The new patrol vessels measure 95 meters in length, with a standard displacement of 1,900 tons, a depth of 7.7 meters, a draft of 4.2 meters, and a top speed of 25 knots (28.8 mph). Like the Mogami-class frigates (FFM), their hulls are designed with a strong emphasis on stealth. In addition, automation technologies have been implemented to reduce crew requirements, limiting the necessary personnel to just 30. This is only one-third of the crew of the Mogami-class, which also prioritizes reduced manpower, with about 90 personnel.
The Sakura (with pennant number OPV 901) and Tachibana (OPV 902) were only recently laid down on February 14, 2025. In June, the Sakura began the “block assemblyprocess, in which hull sections are joined together in the dock, followed by the start of block assembly for the Tachibana as well. According to the JMSDF Maritime Staff Office, after outfitting and various performance tests, the Sakura is scheduled to be commissioned in January 2027, followed by the Tachibana in February of the same year.
