The first-ever RQ-4 Global Hawk to touch down in Japan arrived at Misawa Air Base May 24. A second U.S. Global Hawk surveillance drones arrived Wednesday morning at the Misawa Air Base in northeastern Japan for deployment there until October. The Guam-based Global Hawk arrived at 6:30 a.m., according to the local bureau of Japan’s Defense Ministry. The two reconnaissance aircraft are scheduled to start operating in the Asia-Pacific region in early June and engage in surveillance activities about twice a week. They were temporarily deployed in Japan to avoid typhoons that frequently hit Guam during summer. The Misawa base will handle takeoff and landing and a mainland U.S. air base will take over the control after the aircrafts reach a certain height.
