It is noteworthy that the exercise of this size are not uncommon in Hokkaido, Hokkaido, Japan’s defense system is an important locations.

“the most expensive tank” against

Under the plan, the northern area of ??Japan Ground Self-Defense Force sent 19 to 21, 140 90 tanks live-fire training, 22 and 23, 74 out 40 tanks for training. The first day of training content for the 56 dividend 90 tanks against blue teams.

land defense of Japan headquarters

formed the northern area team in 1952, is Japan’s Ground Self-Defense building the first detachment, responsible for security throughout Hokkaido task. According to data released on its official website, the northern area team existing 37,000 officers and men, the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force in the five most important force.

the Cold War, the strength of the northern area team to reach its peak. In the US-Soviet confrontation, the Japanese in the Western camp in the Far East and former Soviet Union, confront the forefront, in order to prevent the Soviet Pacific Fleet in Hokkaido and Sakhalin by the Soya Strait between the south Pacific, Hokkaido inevitably become the focus of defense. At that time, Japan will be the only armored mechanized 11th Division deployed in Hokkaido, ready to counter the Soviet fleet and the landing force. After the Cold War, the northern area team to mass evacuation was the island of Honshu, Japan, but in recent years, with the re-emergence of the Russian economy, coupled with a dispute between the two countries continue to the four northern islands, the northern side of team defense once again become an important force in the land.

addition to the GSDF, MSDF and the Japan Air Self-Defense Force deployment of forces in Hokkaido underestimated. Held in July this year, the Group of Eight summit held in Hokkaido, Japan, the Hokkaido government has repeatedly drill missile attack by land, sea and air self-defense of the joint action plan. In addition, the Japanese Air Self Defense Force and the Air Force also prepared in early December this year, Chitose base in Japan (located in Chitose City, Hokkaido) for joint training aircraft, which is the second in February this year, after Japan and the U.S. again at Chitose base implementation of such exercises.

Far East: Russian lost to Japan

present, in northern Japan is still growing power of the team, regular fire drills armored vehicles. In its official website, the detachment of the numerous exercises held almost every few days, only in 2008, the size scale of the exercise has reached more than 40.

the other hand, Russia is not only the phasing out of military facilities in the four northern islands, have lost the delivery of large-scale armored sea ability, and even the size and number of military exercises also fell sharply. In the Far East, the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force’s size and strength far more than Russia. In 1998, the Japanese “Osumi” class amphibious landing ships in service after another, in August 2007, more advanced “day to” helicopter destroyer launched, the Japanese Self-Defense Force’s amphibious capability greatly improved. In the “on the” under cover “Osumi” 90 tanks can be delivered directly to the “enemy” beachhead. In particular, the day Russia, “the four northern islands” problem when upgrading, once Japan is fully capable of amphibious landings, would cast strong armored vehicles sent to the front.
