Photographer's remark
(11.8.2015, 20:14 CET)
It was only shortly before RIAT that the JASDF announced that it was sending two Kawasaki MPAs to the show; whether this had anything to do with speculation about an emerging RAF MPA requirement following the expansion of Russian submarine activity round NATO shores can only be guessed at. The aircraft, from VX51, arrived on July 14 having left Atsugi, Japan, on July 10, having routed via NAS Oceana, Virginia, before a non-stop Atlantic flight. They were commanded by Cdr K Sugimoto.
