Not American, but still, Naval Aviation of a partner force. There is a reason most countries won't do night ops like we do.

Japan has been in the naval aviation business for a while. Didn't know they were flying -60s. Though I don't know why it would surprise me.

Either way, rough day.

Yes, They have been long time operators of both the 60 and the 47. I believe they had MH53's at one point.

Essentially they built got a 60R long before we ever had one. Didn’t realize they did night ASW.
