Japan promotes C-2 to Middle East
Japan is pitching its Kawasaki C-2 airlifter to Middle Eastern customers, paying particular attention to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), senior Japanese defence sources told Janes on 17 November.
The Japanese Ministry of Defense is in advanced talks with the UAE that are coming to fruition, the sources said.
Colonel Yutaka Saito, programme manager for the C-2, told Janes on 17 November, “We are considering possibilities to co-operate with countries in the Middle East, and the governments of Japan and the UAE continue to discuss what kind of co-operation would be possible between the two countries.”
Colonel Saito considers the characteristics of the C-2 military transport aircraft – its high speed, extended range, and high service ceiling – as advantages in comparison with the competition.
