Deployment to units began in 1982, and it continues to play a main role in the air defense of Japan's skies.
Eagle pilots are known as Eagle Riders and boast high piloting skills. To further enhance their abilities, elite pilots from the Japan Air Self-Defense Force's fighter squadrons are regularly selected to compete in combat-style competitions.
