Kawasaki Heavy Industries also makes ships and main propulsion diesel engines. also bridges, airplanes, helicopters, turbines and what we are most familiar with. motorcycles! first picture is of the founder of Kawasaki Heavy Industries Shozo Kawasaki. he founded the company in 1876 as one of Japan's pioneer industries which is now one of the world's premier industrial builders. the first locomotives built in Japan were built by Kawasaki. the first submarines built in Japan were built for the IJN by Kawasaki. so next time just before you take a ride on your Kawasaki hoist a beer in memory of Mr. Kawasaki and his accomplishments. second picture is of a modern tanker and the third is a 12cyl. 100,000hp ships main propulsion diesel engine. both of course by Kawasaki.
