"textContent": "Japan has carried out the first public flight of the Kawasaki EC-2 SOJ, a specialized electronic warfare aircraft designed to disrupt and suppress enemy electronic systems from a safe distance.\nPurpose and Capabilities\n\nThe primary mission of the EC-2 SOJ is to interfere with adversary radar and electronic systems without entering the engagement range of enemy surface-to-air missile systems. This allows the aircraft to operate with reduced risk while supporting broader military operations.\nIn addition to its jamming role, the aircraft is expected to play a significant part in electronic warfare operations, including suppression of enemy air defenses and disruption of communications networks.",
