U.S. Marines with Marine Wing Support Squadron 172, Marine Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing demolish a section of runway using an Asphalt Zipper at Ie Shima Training Facility, Okinawa, Japan, March 17-19, 2025. The Asphalt Zipper is used for road repair and reclamation, grinding asphalt and mixing it with the base to create a reusable surface. Marines used the Asphalt Zipper to demolish the airstrip, allowing them to replace it with a higher quality runway capable of supporting aircraft landings. (U.S. Marine Corps video by Lance Cpl.
