White Arrows, the JMSDF aerobatic flight team, is composed of the instructors of Air Training Squadron 201, who normally train aviation cadets in navigation techniques. They perform exhibition flights by four T-5 training aircrafts for events and ceremonies.
Every JMSDF pilot is subject to the training by the 201st Air Training Squadron. Approx. 100 personnel complete the course every year to engage in warning and surveillance, emergency transport and other duties as aircraft pilots and tactical coordinators.
