The ongoing partnership between U.S. and Japan forces continues to demonstrate both countries’ commitment to maintaining stability and security throughout the Indo-Pacific region. The total fleet of six C-130Js assigned to the 36th AS were used for a bilateral airlift to deliver approximately 300 JGSDF paratroopers to drop zones at Kikaijima Island, Japan, during the static-line personnel jump portion of the training.
