    Right now everyone will write: "that's right, so let them remember, let them be afraid"
    Remember the Kuril Islands and Hiroshima from Nagasaki.
    Although Japan is actually a harmless country with neighbors such as militant China and the DPRK.

      Something the Japanese are scurrying around, maybe there is something to hide, it is not yet known that they are chemists with the sshants. And so, our fellows, they don’t give them peace and constantly remind themselves! I can only wish all new successful flights! soldier

      At one time, Japan was called the "unsinkable US aircraft carrier" and now, in fact, nothing has changed. A cloud of American bases is on their territory. (I will not minus you already explained)

    As a balm for the soul, and so it becomes good when you read that our aviation again masters the eyes of the Japanese and at the same time striped. Guys go for it, clear skies and more kerosene! Bring back the glory of Russian aviation.

    The Japanese do not like our patrol. Well, let them get used to it, I hope it will be for a long time and forever. To keep them on the "hook" so that life does not seem like honey, and there was no time to think about our Kurils.

    Actually, the story shows something else. Did the Japanese troops trample Korea, China, the Philippines, our southern Sakhalin (I will not bring all countries). They are quiet and harmless while a baton hangs over them. They cannot be relaxed. The Americans walked through them with vigorous weapons — now their best friends. And our aviation under the USSR always patrolled around Japan. I know, since my father flew there on a Tu-16.

    Thanks to the pilots. They are just great. They’re not afraid of anything. Fly on an old decrepit technique. Under the nose of a potential enemy, sworn friend, without fighter escort. Honor and praise !!!

    "The Russian Il-38 alarmed the Japanese Air Force" - well enough to write nonsense already. The appearance of any military aircraft near the air border of the state causes a reaction of the air defense forces, if this does not happen, then the air defense commander needs to be dragged to be shot ... Our pilots (I hope) also fly out to intercept when Japanese (it does not matter whose) aircraft appear at our borders if this is not a passenger plane flying along its own "corridor".

    If we train the Japanese, it would be interesting to know who, where and in what quantity trains us.
