Aerospace is one of the few remaining technologies in which the U.S. is demonstrably ahead of its Japanese counterpart. Such leadership role can only be maintained through aggressive and active support for the infrastructure of the research and development efforts in this technology area. The two main infrastructure elements in aerospace research and development are ground-based testing facilities and computational resources. This report presents a survey of the major Japanese civilian and military aeronautical ground testing and computational facilities, including the Japan National Aerospace Laboratory and the Third Research Institute. Also, four of Japan's five major aerospace industries are surveyed. An assessment of the Japanese management approach for aerospace technology is formulated on the basis of the survey.
