Japan Explores Indian Facilities for Training on Long-Range Missiles and Drones
Japan has sent a military delegation to India to explore training facilities for its Ground Self-Defense Force, focusing on long-range missiles and small attack drones. The delegation inspected sites like Chandipur in Odisha, known for missile testing over the Bay of Bengal. Japan seeks suitable locations to train personnel on its Type-25 missile system, which has a range of about 1,000 kilometers, addressing challenges in domestic training space. This initiative may enhance defense cooperation between Japan and India.
