The European participants are France, Germany, Italy and Spain. The NATO members and Japan are security allies of the United States.
The exercise was held at Chitose, an important base in northern Japan, from where the country's maritime borders are monitored in an area where Russian warships transit nearby waterways including the Soya Strait, also known as the La Perouse Strait.A four-day exercise, named Nippon Skies, began on Monday at Chitose involving Japanese F-15 Eagles, three German Typhoons and three German support aircraft.
