[Japan's "Sankei Shimbun" reported on October 9] Title: Memorandum of Understanding is to enhance aerial refueling US-Japan mutual defense a good opportunity
Japan and the U.S. signed a memorandum to Air Self Defense Force in joint training and other occasions to the U.S. military aircraft for aerial refueling. This solution only allows U.S. troops to the original SDF refueling problems, the U.S. military and the SDF for the first time “two-way” air refueling.
addition to fighter planes, bombers and memorandum also applies to airborne early warning and control aircraft. Memorandum to stop hollowing out of Japan-US alliance to enhance the rejection of the actual effect.
In the past, the Japan-US joint training, the U.S. military planes have been to the Self-Defense Forces aircraft for aerial refueling, and Self-Defense Force aircraft, the U.S. military is never “return a favor.”
reported that in 2008, ASDF Komaki base in Aichi Prefecture, the first deployment of K C-7 6 7 tanker. Last October, the establishment of four Air Self Defense Force aerial refueling system, the Japan-US exchange of fuel and other materials will be based on the Japan-US “mutual military support agreements” signed a memorandum of understanding.
to enhance the interaction of the alliance, the memorandum is an important progress. Restrain the power to compete for China to ensure that only the strategy of refusing to consider the U.S. military has also welcomed the two-way air refueling.
But it is worrying that the Japanese government tried to limit the fuel in the common two-way training range. In fact, in addition to training, “mutual military support agreements,” also applies to the armed attack events and so on. Therefore, to safeguard national security, the freedom to limit the scope of practice is in fact no benefit.
was warned that if the memo extended to U.S. military operations, the SDF will be in effect to exercise collective self-defense. This view is not realistic. Chief Cabinet Fujimura repair, also known as “The warning exaggerated.”
