I was wondering what JGSDF type of stuff is being used in any conflicts right now. I seen they have some nice kits. But not sure where they could be used.

None that I can think of.

The JGSDF were in Iraq with wheeled AFVs from January 2004 to July 2006....and have been withdrawn.

Some Japanese transport aircraft are still being used to move coalition troops and equipment between Iraq and Kuwait.

I don't think the JGSDF have AFVs deployed outside of Japan at this time.....maybe East Timor or the Golan on UN missions?

hope this help

type 82 CCV in cambodia during APRONUC in 1991

The japanese government is very wary of deploying their troops abroad. Mostly due to the constraints embedded in their constitution as set up after WWII.

I'm afraid your stuck with vehicles on exercise.
