japenese border security sure beats the way us aussies do it .. the Japanese have no tolerance for not obeying the stop order...

Im surprisded they didnt have the US-3A Amphibian i assume to attack it.. which was taking the air to air footage? or could it be a helo?

The US-3A ?? amphibian the JSDF use is a off shoot of the USN SP-5M Marlin if im right - which only 1 left in the world. Shame no one thought to save the SP-5 class for a warbird use or a firebomber...

I believe it was a P-3. JMSDF or JASDF has at least several units that use them if I remember right.

Good on them, North Korean govt are a bunch of crooks.
Shame the AUS govt didn't shoot that crap out of the Pong Su drug ship that was off the southern and eastern coast of Aus. They did board and sink it much later though :)
