PACIFIC OCEAN (Feb. 28, 2021) – The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) Hatakaze-class destroyer JDS Hatakaze (TV 3520) transits the Pacific Ocean Feb. 28, 2021. The JMSDF is operating with the Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group in the U.S. 7th Fleet area of operations. As the U.S. Navy’s largest forward-deployed fleet, 7th Fleet routinely operates and interacts with 35 maritime nations while conducting missions to preserve and protect a free and open Indo-Pacific Region.

Mitsubishi F-15J and F-2
The F-2 differs from the F-16 in a larger wing, more composite materials usage to reduce weight, the first ever operational AESA radar, larger control surfaces and more ECM/different avionics. The aircraft was developed from early block F-16As so it represented a drastic increase in capability compared to those early blocks. The differences seem less stark when compared to current indigenous/export F-16 blocks
