Long-Range Missiles On Transport Planes | Japan Plans USA's 'Rapid Dragon' Programme For C-2 Fleet

Japan’s Air Self-Defense Force is considering to equip its fleet of 15 C-2 transport planes with long-range missiles. Japan’s Defense Ministry aims to improve the country’s standoff defence capability, reports say. The missiles could be used for operations to attack enemy bases, such as missile launch sites, in counterstrikes. The standoff defense capability enables attacks against enemy troops and vessels from outside their range. Watch the video to find out what types of missiles are under consideration.
