Japan makes 3rd PAC-3 deployment in Yokosuka

YOKOSUKA, Japan - Residents opposed to the deployment of PAC-3 missile interceptors hold a rally in front of the main gate of the Air Self-Defense Force's Takeyama Base in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture as a convoy of PAC-3 launchers rolled into the base early Jan. 30. The Japanese government has deployed similar antimissile systems in Saitama and Chiba prefectures to protect the Tokyo metropolitan area against a missile attack.
