… Destroyer DDH-184 "Kaga".

"Kaga was an aircraft carrier of the Imperial Japanese Navy, the third to enter service, named after the former Kaga Province in present-day Ishikawa Prefecture.

Izumo class Helicopter Destroyers have 5 helicopter spots and accomodation for 14 in hangar (a typical "air wing" would consist in 7 SH-60J or SH-60K ASW Helicopters, 2 UH-60J SAR Helicopters, 2 MCH-101 minesweeping helicopters and 2 CH-47J)…."

I'm not expecting the IJN, erm JMSDF, to build too many more. Those big-deck "helicopter destroyers" are very new in service, and I expect them to last at least 20 years.
