About the Aircraft

The 303rd Tactical Fighter Squadron of JASDF is a newly formed squadron at Komatsu Air Base in 1976. The squadron operated the F-4EJ at first and changed the model to the F-15J from 1987. The squadron emblem "Dragon" is the call sign "Dragon" of the predecessor 4th Squadron, and has the motif of a dragon that lives in Mountain Hakusan, the hometown of Komatsu base. In 2017, the F-15J #817 was painted with special marking to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the squadron's founding.
