India, Japan Air Chiefs Fly Tejas Together As F-2A, Rafale, Su-30MKI Flex Air Power At China
India and Japan have taken their defence partnership into the cockpit. Their air chiefs flew Tejas fighters at Jodhpur during Exercise Veer Guardian 2026. Japans F-2A jets are operating alongside Indias Rafale, Su-30MKI and indigenous Tejas. It is the first Japanese fighter deployment to India. The message is clear. This is not just a ceremonial visit. It is a test of tactical coordination, communication and professional trust. The F-2A was developed by Japan with American support, while Tejas represents Indias own aerospace ambitions. Their differences make the exercise more useful. Both air forces can learn how another partner plans missions, manages safety and operates in unfamiliar airspace. The wider message is aimed at the Indo-Pacific. China is becoming more assertive. India and Japan may not name Beijing, but their military cooperation speaks loudly. Shreya Chandra gives a full India-first breakdown of Veer Guardian 2026 and its strategic impact ahead of the next crisis.
