Japan Plans to Buy F-35 Stealth Fighter

11 November 2010

The Japanese Defence Ministry is considering theh purchase of the F-35 joint strike fighter as its main combat jet after giving up a plan to buy additional F-2 aircraft. The ministry plans to list the procurement costs for the next-generation jet in its budget request for 2012.

The ministry has requested 680m yen ($80m) from the 2011 budget to obtain information on the capabilities of the F-35.

Japan has been trying to upgrade its F-15 Eagles and buy additional F-2 fighter aircraft due to the delay in the development of the F-35 programme.

Tous les pays intéressés par le F-35 se positionnent dés à présent sur la liste des futurs acquéreurs et programment leurs budgets en conséquence. De cette manière, le développement de cet aéronef et son marché à l'exportation sont désormais assurés.
