Just to reiterate what I said on the other page, this is not captured equipment but rather post-war (戦後) business deal with JMSDF, therefore has no reason to be under American banner once it moved hands.

Arguably, the manufacturer isn't mentioned in the intro because enough curiousity about the name (S-51) can already lead to the answer, especially with Iowa Fairy being an obvious hint.
