Taiwan quake led to traffic jam of Japanese air power

Fighter pilots practice scrambling their jets so they can take off in minutes should a military threat arise. But what do they do when Mother Nature is the enemy?

At one Japanese air base, they take to the streets.

After a 7.4-magnitude earthquake off Taiwan last week prompted a tsunami alert for Okinawa, the Japan Air Self-Defense Force’s Naha Air Base, attached to the low-lying Naha Airport on the southwestern coast of the island, moved a dozen F-15J fighter jets to a two-lane road on higher ground.

Fighter pilots practice scrambling their jets so they can take off in minutes should a military threat arise.

After a 7.4-magnitude earthquake off Taiwan last week prompted a tsunami alert for Okinawa, the Japan Air Self-Defense Force’s Naha Air Base, attached to the low-lying Naha Airport on the southwestern coast of the island, moved a dozen F-15J fighter jets to a two-lane road on higher ground.

Images of the base posted on social media showed what looked like a rush hour of air power, with the dozen jets taking up more than an eighth of a mile of road.

A base spokesperson told CNN putting warplanes on a roadway rather than a runway is something that’s practiced so it can be done quickly.

The F-15J, a variant of the US-designed F-15, is the “mainstay” of Japan’s air force, according to the country’s Defense Ministry.

They can fly at 2.5 times the speed of sound, but aircraft tugs did the work during the tsunami alert.
