The Towada-class is a series of replenishment oilers of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF).

Three ships of the class were built between 1985-89.

The ships have the hull designator AOE.

[1] The Towada-class was designed as an enlarged, improved version of the Sagami-class fast combat support ships.

The vessels are capable of mounting the Phalanx CIWS by design, although this is not a common occurrence.
