The decommissioned Yubari class Destroyer Escort would have been a nice addition to our fleet...

BTW:
The Presidential Ship "BRP Ang Pangulo" was built and given by Japan to us...

If the S.Korean will join hoping they bring their old Pohang Class and donate it to us, there are rumors sauna that they would donate one of their old Pohang Class corvette...

World War II, one on of the Allied condition when Japan signed their unconditional surrender to the allies....

Japan can't make a standing army, like they did pre-world war II...They can't make carriers either, unlike pre-WWII when they had one of the navies whom embraced the power of aircraft carriers. Germany was like this, but because of the Iron Curtain, the west decided it would be better to give it a relatively strong fighting force. I think that will probably change if the balance shifts towards China's favor.
