COPE NORTH 2010
T/Sgt. Hiroshi Saito, 8th Combat Wing, 6th TF Squadron, Tsuiki AB, Japan, works under a F2 Support Fighter during a weapons upload at Cope North, Andersen Air Force Base, Guam on Feb. 9, 2009. The United States Air Force and the Japanese Air Self-Defense Force conduct Cope North annually to increase combat readiness and interoperability, concentrating on coordination and evaluation of air tactics, techniques, and procedures. The ability for both nations to work together increases their preparedness to support real-world contingencies.
