- The Maritime Self-Defense Force's new submarine [Soryu] is the first domestic submarine equipped with an AIP (air independent propulsion) system.
- To improve stealth, the hull and sail are covered with sound-absorbing tiles, and the rudder adopts an X rudder with high underwater maneuverability and low risk of damage.
- In addition, it has a different appearance from existing ships, such as a rectifying fillet attached to the front of the sail.
- Of the 12 [Soryu] type ships, the 11th ship [Oryu] and the 12th ship [Toryu], which will be commissioned in 2020, will be equipped with an AIP system and a lithium-ion battery instead of a lead-acid battery, enabling further underwater action. Capacity is being improved.
