The Kyogamisaki Communications Site radar will augment an existing system located at Japan Air Self-Defence Force (JASDF) Shariki Sub Base in Aomori Prefecture in northern Japan, according to the DoD.
Japan received its first TPY-2 in September 2006, and the United States and Japan agreed on 17 September 2012 to the deployment of this second AN/TPY-2.
The second Japanese TPY-2 had been a test asset at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California and is not a new radar system.

News: JMSDF conducts first flight training of 2015
IWAKUNI, Japan - The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force Fleet Air Wing 31 conducted their first flight training of the year aboard Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan, Jan. 7, 2015.
According to JMSDF Cmdr. Kenzo Miyazaki, executive officer of air operations with Air Rescue Squadron 71, Japanese culture dictates that a successful first flight of the year brings great fortune for the months to come.
“Since the first flight training of the year was successful, we believe that all JMSDF units and members will complete successful and accident-free training and mission execution throughout the year,” said JMSDF Lt. Cmdr. Takao Yamakawa, public relations officer with Fleet Air Wing 31.
The JMSDF began the flight training with an opening ceremony at the flight line.
“We had all members of JMSDF present in formation,” said Yamakawa. “We did that to illustrate that we share a goal to achieve and it takes a team effort to reach that goal.”
According to Yamakawa, the shared goal they want to achieve is to continue getting better at everything they do.
“We don’t have any particularly new changes for the year 2015, our goal remains the same,” said Yamakawa. “We continue our training in order to maintain our skills we’ve attained thus far and continue our efforts to make it better.”
JMSDF members were somewhat nervous coming into this training because it’s so important to them that the first time is successful, according to Miyazaki.
“It was the first time that I conducted the first flight training,” said Miyazaki. “It was a moment of tension and anxiousness, but also high motivation.”
Unfavorable weather conditions the day prior to training also worried the members of the JMSDF, according to Yamakawa.
“The weather was our main concern leading up to this training because it rained the day before, but we were blessed with nice weather and because of that, the training went wonderfully,” said Yamakawa.

You need to unleash them on the terrorists.
Give ISIS what it feels to see the Rising Sun flag fluttering majestically.
Spoken like a true Japanese Nationalist! Are you sure you're Indian and not a Japanese, @Tshering22 ??

@Nihonjin1051 -san, I am a dharmic nationalist of India.
We share similar sentiments towards those who upset the balance of nature. ISIS is a scum and an unnatural force of evil.
Japan and India traditionally have involved in loving and respecting the beautiful world we live in with many of its wonders still unexplored.
We Indians want that Japan should lead this war against jihadi terrorism as an Asian power.
One thing I can proudly say on PDF is that to get rid of scum like Al Qaeda, Taliban and ISIS, All Asian civilizations stand united together.
