Go behind the scenes as two of the most advanced U.S.-made military aircraft types are delivered to Japan.
The Japan Air Self-Defense Force plans to deploy eighteen E-2D Advanced Hawkeye early-warning aircraft, and in August 2025 the eleventh aircraft was transported by sea from the United States to Japan.
Meanwhile, the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force has completed the deployment of seventeen V-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft, which were shipped across the Pacific and offloaded in Japan between 2020 and 2024.
This video captures rare footage of these high-value aircraft being unloaded and delivered—showcasing the ongoing modernization of Japan’s defense capabilities.
