Tokyo (ANTARA News) - Japan's defense ministry has decided to build a
stealth fighter and wants a first test flight within five years, a news
report said.
The move could concern Washington as Japan is a major customer of US
defense equipment, the Tokyo Shimbun was quoted by AFP as saying.
Japan is moving ahead because the US military has been reluctant to
sell Japan F-22 Raptors, the latest US Air Force jets built to evade
radar detection at supersonic speeds.
