Japan plans first-ever fighter jet deployment to India next month

Japan plans to deploy fighter jets in India for the first time next month, a move tied to strengthening security cooperation in the Indo-Pacific, according to experts cited by SCMP.

The outlet says Japan is making the decision as it ramps up defense spending in response to China’s growing military power.

The deployment is also framed as part of Tokyo’s broader effort to deepen ties with “like-minded” countries in the region.
