Construction and career

[edit | edit source]

Jinryū was laid down at Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Kobe Shipyard on January 21, 2011, as the 2011 plan 2900-ton submarine No. 8122 based on the medium-term defense capability development plan. At the launching ceremony, it was named Jinryū and launched on 8 October 2014. She was commissioned on 7 March 2016 and deployed to Kure.

The homeport of Jinryū is Kure.[3]

The ship participated in the Japan-India Maritime Exercise (JAIMEX-25) with INS Sahyadri of the Indian Navy between 16 and 18 October 2025. Other Japanese ships, including Asahi and Ōmi, also participated in the exercise. Sahyadri was on an operational deployment to the South China Sea and the Indo-Pacific and conducted a port call at the Yokosuka Naval Base.[4][5]
