I'm not sure how realistic this is but a few over on UKAR are getting a bit excited about this Japanese article claiming that a pair of P-1's will attend RIAT

Pair of Maritime Self-Defense Force latent patrol aircraft is " P-1 " , the first time exhibited at the exhibition to be held in the United Kingdom from July 17, 2015 through July 19, " the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) 2015

Maybe a cheaper option to the P-8 idea?

This Japanese news report says Tokyo plans to bring the Kawasaki P-1 maritime patrol aircraft to RIAT in Britain next month.

You would think this might have something to do with it?

Wes..

[roughcutter]

would love to see the p-1 at riat and try out my new Nikon d5500.i also think it would look good in uk markings it looks like a lovely airframe and would work great for the uk as we are a small island..19 days to go ....

And no likelihood of them being "hijacked" by Farnborough this year (if they come...)

Direct to Update.

Due to the close proximity of the event we will be updating our participating aircraft list on airtattoo.com as soon as we have new aircraft to confirm and not on Thursday at noon.

I hope this helps someone

Yes I can read the above post ,but I was pointing out that RIAT, whilst confirming the participation, haven't announced the fact that there will be a pair as yet.
