sakhaliner on September 15, 2026 7:35 pm Submission statement: With tensions rising in Asia-Pacific, Japan is building up its military. This is kind of a big loss. >The drone is one of three Global Hawks owned by the air force and deployed at its Misawa Air Base in the northern prefecture of Aomori.
