The 301st Tactical Fighter Squadron ({{nihongo|第301飛行隊|dai-sann-byaku-ichi-hikoutai}}) is a squadron of the 7th Air Wing of the Japan Air Self-Defense Force based at Hyakuri Air Base (Ibaraki Airport) in Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan. It is equipped with F-4EJ Kai Phantom II and Kawasaki T-4 aircraft.[1][2]

Along with the 302nd Tactical Fighter Squadron, the 301st is responsible for air defense of the Tokyo Metropolitan area.

As an F-4 squadron, it is expected to be one of the first JASDF squadrons to re-equip with the Lockheed Martin F-35A Lightning II.[3]

History

Prior to the 301st being formed as a full-fledged unit, it originally came into being as the Provisional F-4EJ squadron with only two aircraft in service on August 1, 1972. It was the first unit of the JASDF to fly the F-4. On February 25th the first operational conversation course for F-4EJ pilots was started. As of 2017 the squadron is still the operational conversion unit for pilots learning to fly the F-4.

The 301st squadron was founded at Hyakuri Air base on October 16th, 1973 as an F-4EJ Phantom II squadron. It was also equipped with Kawasaki-built Lockheed T-33A trainer/liaison aircraft.

On March 2nd, 1985 it moved to Nyutabaru Air Base in Miyazaki prefecture in Kyushu, swapping bases with the 204th Tactical Fighter Squadron which was flying the F-104J Starfighter but was due to convert to the F-15J and D-15DJ Eagle at Hyakuri.

In April 1991 the squadron updated from F-4EJ to F-4EJ Kai aircraft.

On October 31, 2016 as part of a JASDF reorganization it switched bases with the F-15J equipped 305th Tactical Fighter Squadron and returned to Hyakuri Air Base.[4]

One of the aircraft operated by the squadron (17-8440) was the last of the 5,195 F-4 Phantoms to be produced. It was manufactured by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries on May 21, 1981. "The Final Phantom" originally served with the 306th Tactical Fighter Squadron.[5]

As one of the two remaining JASDF F-4 fighter squadrons, it is expected to be the second JASDF squadron to operate the Lockheed Martin F-35A Lightning II[3] after the 302nd.[6]

Tail marking

The squadron emblem of the 301st squadron is a frog wearing a scarf. The word for "frog" in Japanese is kaeru, the same sound (but different characters) as the word for "come home" (safely). The frog is based on the Japanese common toad, which is found by Mount Tsukuba nearby Hyakuri airbase where the squadron was formed. The frog wears a scarf adorned with stars. The number of stars represent the air wing it belongs to, and as it currently belongs to the 7th Air Wing it has seven stars. When it belonged to the 5th Air Wing at Nyutabaru in Miyazaki Prefecture from 1985 to 2016 it had five.[4]
