A Japan Air Self-Defense Force (JASDF) pilot tries on Marine Corps flight equipment during the Nyutabaru Aviation Training Relocation (ATR) at JASDF Nyutabaru Air Base, Japan, Dec. 15, 2023. The ATR program allows U.S. aviation units in the Indo-Pacific, such as Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 232 and Marine Aircraft Group (MAG) 12, to train away from their home station to reduce local noise impacts while increasing operational readiness and interoperability. During this year’s ATR program at Nyutabaru Air Base, MAG-12 forces trained alongside the JASDF’s 305th Tactical Fighter Squadron to build upon each other’s tactics and reinforce their combined operational readiness through safe and realistic training.
