Development
During the Pacific War, a large number of mines were laid in the waters near Japan by both Japan and the United States, which greatly hindered shipping including coastal areas at the end of the war, so the need to deal with this was urgent. It was a thing. For this reason, the scavenging force was maintained even while the Imperial Japanese Navy was dismantled after the surrender of Japan, and was taken over by the 2nd Ministry of Demobilization on December 1, 1945. After that, minesweepers were absorbed by the Japan Coast Guard, which was established on August 1, 1952, and transferred to the Coastal Security Force. [1]
Immediately after its inauguration, the guards have been aiming for domestic production of minesweepers. First, in 1953, the Atada-class minesweeper and JDS Yashiro were built with the characteristics of an actual ship experiment. Based on its achievements, this model was designed as the first mass-produced minesweeper after the war. In designing, it was aimed to have the same performance as the US Navy's Bluebird-class minesweeper (operated as a Yamashima-class minesweeper with the donation of four from 1954). [2]
The United States Navy, United States Coast Guard, and United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) use a hull classification symbol to identify their ships by type and by individual ship within a type. The system is analogous to the pennant number system that the Royal Navy and other European and Commonwealth navies use.
The Baltic Fleet is the fleet of the Russian Navy in the Baltic Sea.
The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force, abbreviated JMSDF, also simply known as the Japanese Navy, is the maritime warfare branch of the Japan Self-Defense Forces, tasked with the naval defense of Japan. The JMSDF was formed following the dissolution of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) after World War II. The JMSDF has a fleet of 154 ships, 346 aircraft and 50,800 personnel.

USS Chatterer (AMS-40/YMS-415) was a YMS-1-class minesweeper of the YMS-135 subclass acquired by the U.S. Navy for the task of removing mines that had been placed in the water to prevent ships from passing.
BRP Mangyan (AS71) is an auxiliary ship of the Philippine Navy, formerly the freight supply ship U.S. Army FS-524, built for the United States Army during World War II.
The Adjutant-class auxiliary motor minesweepers were built for the United States Navy throughout the 1950s and 1960s, even as late as 1978. Most were loaned to foreign countries under the Military Defense Assistance Pact, with only 24 actually commissioned by the US Navy, with 13 of those eventually being transferred to foreign nations as well. Initially classified as auxiliary motor minesweepers (AMS), on 7 February 1955, they were reclassified as coastal minesweepers (MSC).
The Asahi-class destroyer escort was a class of destroyer escorts of Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force. Two ships were lent from the Cannon-class by the US Navy and in commissioned from 1955 until 1975.
The Asakaze-class destroyer is a class of destroyers of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. Two ships of the Gleaves class were lent by the United States Navy and were in commission from 1954 until 1969.
JDSAkashi(AGS-5101) was an oceanographic research ship of Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) in the late 1960s.
The Mine Warfare Force belonged to the minesweeping force for the self-defense fleet of the Maritime Self-Defense Forces. Its main task is to lay naval mines in the event of an emergency, and it also help to dispose mines installed during World War II.

The Safety Security Force, also simply known as the Coastal Security Force, is an organization under the jurisdiction of the National Safety Agency, and existed from 1 August 1952 to 30 June 1954 in Japan. It is a maritime security agency established for the purpose of territorial waters security. It is the successor to the Japan Coast Guard and the predecessor of the Maritime Self-Defense Force.
