Haguro is Launched in Japan (Patreon)

The destroyer, which will be the eighth JMSDF ship to be equipped  with the Aegis Combat System, is 5 m longer than the Atago-class  destroyers operated by the JMSDF.

Haguro will use the Aegis Baseline J7 supported by the  Lockheed Martin/Raytheon AN/SPY-1D(V) phased array radar and the  Northrop Grumman AN/SPQ-9B X-band (NATO I-band) (8-12.5 GHz)  high-resolution fire-control radar.

 The Maya class has a standard displacement of 8,200 tonnes, which is 450  tonnes more than the Atago-class ships. Powered by two General Electric  LM2500 gas turbines in a combined gas turbine-electric and gas turbine  (COGLAG) configuration, each of these platforms can reach a top speed of  30 kt, according to JMU.
