Well i thought they could. Can they not? They even have 2 of those lines/systems thay i thought was used for the helicopters(located at the landing pad to hangars).
Oh i was not referring to that lineIt's only 1 line (the bold line in the middle).
Oh i was not referring to that line
I was referring to the other 2 lines, with a hole which i think is used to assist in directing/moving the helicopter into the hangar. One of them has an equipment as you can see in the picture you showed.
what thrash is that here, claiming the Akizukis couldn't have a pair of helicopters or what?!Oh okay, I see it too.
They can, but depending on how big those are. Akizuki's are indeed capable of storing two SH-60K or J in the aircraft hangar though I never seen any pictures of that as that would be considered emergency and there aren't too many pictures of them taken during big manouvers. Asahi class on the other hand also can take two in the hangar but one must be operated by hand as there's only one rail so in case of Asahi class we can assume that a second one would be stored there in reserve as it wouldn't be fully operational in case of real crisis.what thrash is that here, claiming the Akizukis couldn't have a pair of helicopters or what?!
