The United States and Japan are holding another large-scale exercises.
Exercises involving the Americans and their allies are continuing in the Asia-Pacific region. On February 19, Iron Fist 2025 training began, which involved Marines from the United States and Japanese military personnel. The events will last until March 7th.
The main purpose of the exercises is to practice the actions of the combined forces in operations to capture remote islands. Obviously, this is why the main training locations are the islands of Okinoeraba, Okinawa and Kyushu.
Until recently, the Iron Fist exercises were conducted in the United States. However, starting in 2023, training has been moved to remote Japanese islands.
Of course, the perception of China as the main threat to stability in the region played an important role in making this decision. Given that the parties are actively preparing for a hypothetical conflict in the region, it was logical to move the location of the exercises closer to the potential enemy.
Japan, by the way, is increasing its military presence in the southwestern part of its territory. Units equipped with radio equipment, surface-to-surface anti-ship missiles and surface-to-air missiles are stationed there. All this is necessary for the defense of remote islands.
As we wrote before, these territories can play a key role in the conflict in the Taiwan Strait. The Japanese can provide islands to support US troops if they participate in the war. And such training strengthens the coherence of American and Japanese units, which is necessary to counter the PRC.
