In 2010, the JASDF Blue Impulse celebrate its 50th anniversary of foundation. Starting in 1960 with the F-86F Sabre, the young and motivated new squadron was ready to climp on new limits of their flight skills to build up a high quality program. In 1982, the switch the first time to another aircraft. The Mitsubishe T-2, an very elegant trainer jet, will be the new ride for the five demo pilots. Finaly, in 1996, they switched to the more dynamic and more agile trainer jet, the Kawasaki T-4. With also adding a 6th pilot to the group, they shaped up an gracefull and powerfull display, that slowly gets the attention of many other countries, out of Japan. Old days, like today's, they keep training around 5 days per week to be ready everytime, everywhere and in every wheater and terrain condition.
