Japan Self-Defense Forces
There's much more to the JSDF than fighter jets. In this second in the JSDF series, the majesty of non-fighter planes is showcased. The breath-taking maneuvers of acrobatic teams such as "Blue Impulse" and the Dolphin Riders" are seen from the cockpits of their planes. Also included is the last flight on one of Japan's best trainer planes, the T-2.. See Kawasaki's C-1 transport plane belie its huge size and prove to be a very agile plane. Looking like it stepped straight out of a Sci-Fi movie, the UH-60J helicopter flies across the screen. Once again, Director Kenji Kodama, the only Japanese civilian allowed to film inside the cockpit of these planes, struggles against tremendous G-forces to photograph this program.
