Japan Picture Moment : Missile Launch
A Standard Missile 3 (SM-3) is launched from the Japanese AEGIS Destroyer JS Kongo, en route to intercept a target missile launched from the Pacific Missile Range Facility in Kauai, Hawaii, on December 17, 2007.
The $55 million test was a “major milestone” in growing US-Japanese cooperation, said Rear Adm. Katsutoshi Kawano of the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force and Lt. General Henry Obering, head of the Pentagon’s Missile Defense Agency.
