Training site for fighter jets will be relocated to Mageshima island, around 30km off southwestern Japanese coast.

Tokyo and Washington agreed in 2011 to relocate a training site for US fighter jets to Mageshima island, around 30km off the southwestern Japanese coast. American flight training operations are currently conducted at Iwo Jima, some 1,200km south of Tokyo. Suga said a facility would be built on the island for landing practice “at an early date”, adding that he could not reveal further details as the acquisition was not complete.
