Construction and career
[edit]Makishio was laid down at Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Kobe Shipyard on 6 March 1996 and launched on 26 November 1998. She was commissioned on 9 March 2000[dubious – discuss] and deployed to Yokosuka.[2][3]
On 6 August 2008, she left Kure for Hawaii for the major naval exercise RIMPAC 2008, and she returned to Kure on 12 November.[citation needed]
The submarine participated in RIMPAC 2019 from 30 March to 29 June 2019, and she conducted offshore training and facility use training in the Hawaiian Islands area.[4]
Upon Oyashio's decommissioning on 17 March 2023, Makishio was converted to a training submarine as a replacement.[5]
