Natori (なとり) is a frigate of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force,[1] and the ninth ship of the Mogami class. She is named after the Natori River, which flows through the cities of Natori and Sendai in the Miyagi Prefecture,[2][better source needed][1] and the second ship to be named this way, after the Imperial Japanese Navy's Nagara-class cruiser Natori, as well as the first in the JMSDF era.[1]
History
Natori was ordered by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries as part of the JMSDF's Mid-Term Defense Program, and was laid down at the MHI Nagasaki Shipyard on 6 July 2023. She was christened and launched on 24 June 2024, and is scheduled to be commissioned in 2025 after a period of fitting out and subsequent sea trials.[3]
