TOKYO vans old skool verdes baratas , Aug. 9 (Xinhua) -- Five U.S. military E-2D early warning airplanes arrived at the Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni in western Japan on Wednesday, in the first phase of the relocation of an air wing from a U.S. base near Tokyo.
The E-2D "Hawkeye" planes, an all-weather, carrier-capable tactical airborne early warning (AEW) aircraft, are among 61 aircraft that will be relocated from the Naval Air Facility Atsugi in Kanagawa Prefecture, near Tokyo vans old skool verdes , to the U.S. Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
The move is based on an accord reached between Japan and the United States in 2006 on the realignment of U.S. forces in Japan.

Local residents have filed a number of lawsuits calling for an early realignment of the planes.
The relocation is expected to be completed by next spring, with the Iwakuni base set to accommodate 120 aircraft and 3,800 extra personal.

Separately, the U.S. aircraft carrier Ronald Reagan docked at its home port at Yokosuka Naval Base on Wednesday.
Its return to Japan follows a three-month mission including patrols and drills conducted in the Sea of Japan.
The carrier left Yokosuka on May 16 and joined the Carl Vinson Nimitz-class supercarrier vans old skool granate , which is based in San Diego.
