Defense Minister Nakatani comments on Osprey

Japan's Defense Minister Gen Nakatani meets with reporters in Honolulu, Hawaii, on Nov. 23, 2015, after the U.S. Marine Corps announcement that pilot error was the main cause of the fatal crash of an MV-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft in Hawaii in May. "I understand that Osprey has no structural deficiencies. I will promote the deployment of the aircraft at the Ground Self-Defense Force as planned," Nakatani said. (Kyodo) ==Kyodo
