The ''Asagiri'' class is equipped for combat and interception missions and is primarily armed with anti-ship weapons. They carry two of the Mk-141 [Guided Missile Launching System](/source/Guided_Missile_Launching_System) (GMLS), which are [anti-ship missile](/source/anti-ship_missile) systems. The ship is also fitted to be used against [submarine](/source/submarine)s. She also carries Mk-32 Surface Vessel Torpedo Tubes (SVTT), which can be used as an anti-submarine weapon. The ship has two of these systems [abeam](/source/abeam) to [starboard](/source/starboard) and to port. The ship is also fitted with a [Oto-Melara](/source/OTO_Melara) 62-caliber gun to be used against sea and air targets.<ref name="seaforce-asagiri2">{{cite web|title=Asagiri class Destroyer - DD|url=http://www.seaforces.org/marint/Japan-Maritime-Self-Defense-Force/Destroyer/Asagiri-class.htm|accessdate=11 December 2014|website=seaforces.org}}</ref>

They are {{convert|137|m|ftin|abbr=on}} long and have a range of {{convert|8000|nmi|lk=in}} at {{convert|14|kn|lk=in}}, with a top speed of {{convert|30|kn}}. The ship can have up to 220 personnel on board. The ship is also fitted to accommodate for one aircraft. The ship's [flight deck](/source/flight_deck) can be used to service a SH-60J9(K) Seahawk [helicopter](/source/helicopter).<ref name="seaforce-asagiri2"/>

== Construction and career ==
She was [laid down](/source/Keel_laying) on 13 February 1985 and [launched](/source/Ceremonial_ship_launching) on 19 September 1986 by [IHI Corporation](/source/IHI_Corporation), [Tokyo](/source/Tokyo). She was [commissioned](/source/Commissioned_(ship)) on 17 March 1988.

On 16 February 2005, she was reclassified as a [training ship](/source/training_ship), and the ship's hull number was changed to TV-3516. It was transferred to the training fleet 1st training corps. In 2008 and 2011, she participated in a practice voyage to the ocean with the training ship [JS ''Kashima''](/source/JDS_Kashima).

On 14 March 2012, she was reclassified to an [escort ship](/source/Ocean_escort) again, and the ship registration number was changed to DD-151. Reorganized into the 14th escort fleet, the ship's fixed port became [Maizuru](/source/Maizuru).

In late August 2019, she took over the mission of {{ship|JS|Sazanami}}, and, on 1 September on her way back to Japan, she stopped at [Muscat](/source/Muscat), the capital of [Oman](/source/Oman) in the Middle East and conducted tactical movements and communication & goodwill training with the {{ship|Omani patrol boat|Al Seeb}} in the waters around the country. Joint training with the [Philippine Navy](/source/Philippine_Navy) corvette {{ship|BRP|Emilio Jacinto|PS-35|6}} was held from 24–26 September. On 4 October, she returned to Maizuru after completing her mission off the coast of [Somalia](/source/Somalia).<ref>{{Cite web|last=aseanportal_writerworldllc|title=海上自衛隊とフィリピン海軍が通信訓練・戦術運動の共同訓練|url=https://portal-worlds.com/news/philippines/19254|access-date=2020-11-23|website=アセアンポータル|language=ja}}</ref>
