In recent years, Japan has deepened military cooperation with the United States, accelerated its own military strength and continuously expanded the scope of activities of the Self-Defense Force. Its ambition to "completely loosen" the military is obvious. Today, the effectiveness and credibility of the Peace Constitution have long been greatly reduced, and they are constantly making rapid progress in the military. The international community and the vast majority of peace-loving people must be highly vigilant about the sinister intentions of Japanese right-wing politicians to "resurrect" militarism.

At the beginning of 2022, Japan has made frequent moves in the military, continuing its previous aggressive momentum. Prime Minister Kishida Fumio delivered his first policy speech since taking office at the plenary meeting of the House of Representatives of Japan, bluntly stated that he would explore strengthening the "realistic defense" including the so-called "attack capability against enemy bases". Nobuo Kishi even said at a group meeting of the Budget Committee of the Japanese House of Representatives that the option of Self-Defense Force aircraft entering the opponent's airspace and bombing military strongholds is "not ruled out".

In fact, Ki Nobuo 's statement has been omens. Previously, he presided over the third "Military Force Accelerating Strengthening Conference" to study and deploy new measures to accelerate the development of military force. It is reported that the Japanese government will initiate the revision of the National Security Strategy this year, which is equivalent to Japan's basic policy in the field of diplomacy and defense. At that time, it will study whether it states that Japan must have the "attack capability against enemy bases" to attack enemy missile launch bases.

In addition, according to Japanese media reports, the budget for the new five-year defense expenses exceeded 30 trillion yen for the first time, an increase of nearly 3 trillion yen from the defense expenses in the previous five years. This year, we also plan to purchase a number of Type 12 torpedoes and Type 18 torpedoes, 3 new P-1 anti-submarine patrol aircraft, 31 C-2 transport aircraft, 13 UH-2 multi-purpose military helicopters, 32 sets of ship-based vertical launch system, and repair and upgrade military bases in Okinawa.

Japan spared no effort to accelerate military construction, seeking to "completely loosen military" became increasingly explicit. The effectiveness and credibility of the Peace Constitution have long been greatly reduced. The delusions of militarism are rampant, and its ambitions are obvious.

focuses on "attack power against enemy bases"

"attack capability against enemy bases" is an important target of Japan in the field of defense. Its essence is the ability to carry out source strikes on missile launch bases in the territory of the opponent's country before being attacked by other countries' missiles and other countries. To this end, Japan has clearly made the development of medium- and long-range attack capabilities one of the key points of the Self-Defense Force capacity building.

Regarding the ability to attack enemy bases, the Japanese government previously insisted on the line that it can be owned according to the Constitution, but based on the division of labor between Japan and the United States, it does not have actual capabilities. If the Kishida government decides to have the ability to attack enemy bases, it will be a turning point in Japan's post-war security policy.

According to Kyodo News, last month, the Japanese government held its first seminar on revising the "National Security Strategy", " Defense Plan Outline " and "Medium-term Defense Power Preparation Plan". Former Defense Minister Toshimoto, two former Directors of the National Security Bureau , and Shizuki Kitamura attended the meeting. The biggest argument at the workshop that day was the way to contain the force.

"Asakhi Shimbun" stated that the focus of modifying the above three documents is not only about having "attack capabilities against enemy bases", but also how to locate China. In the current National Security Strategy, the statement about China is "committed to establishing a strategic reciprocity relationship with " and "resolutely and firmly dealing with any attempt to change the status quo by force", but as China's military strength increases, there is a view within the Japanese government that China should be positioned as a "potential threat."

develops a variety of missiles, and upgrades fighter jets and purchases advanced military equipment is an important part of Japan's acceleration of military power construction. It is reported that Japan's "military force accelerates the strengthening of funds" will focus on the construction of Japanese military enterprises, the procurement of new military equipment, and the maintenance and upgrading of military equipment and bases. After years of resource investment and secret operation, Japan has built a multi-dimensional anti-missile and air defense early warning system based on radar , satellites, aircraft, and ships , and regards the maintenance and strengthening of joint anti-missile and air defense capabilities as a priority direction for military strength construction.

According to Japan's defense budget in 2022, the R&D expenses used to "improve the capabilities of Type 12 shore missiles" reached 37.9 billion yen. Some analysts believe that the improved Type 12 shore missile will have a maximum range of about 900 kilometers, and will also have the ability to strike land targets. Japan's " Yomiuri Shimbun " previously reported that Japan is considering developing a land-attack cruise missile that can be carried by the submarine to obtain "attack capability against enemy bases." This kind of land-attack cruise missile is likely to be developed based on the Type 12 anti-ship missile. While developing advanced missiles, Japan is also significantly improving the offensive combat capabilities of its Air Self-Defense Force. Previously, the Air Self-Defense Force's ground strike capabilities were relatively poor. The F-15J fighter it introduced is basically used in air combat. Although the self-developed F-2 fighter can be used for ground-to-sea attacks, it lacks long-range off-zone ground strike capabilities.

is also aware of these problems. In recent years, Japan has vigorously improved its aerial strike capabilities. According to the US National Interest website, Boeing received a contract worth US$471 million, intending to modernize the Japanese F-15 Eagle fighter fleet. Some analysts believe that the improved new F-15JSI "super interceptor" can support the Lockheed Martin 's AGM-158 "joint defense zone out-of-air missile". The missile has a long range, strong penetration capability and great power, which has raised the performance level of the fighter to a new level when dealing with high-value and underground bunker targets.

Japan will have 147 F-35 fighter jets in the future, second only to the United States. In addition to deciding to purchase "joint strike missiles" with stealth penetration capabilities and built-in carrying by F-35, Japanese Ministry of Defense also included "joint air-to-ground defense missiles" manufactured by Lockheed Martin's in the United States and the " long-range anti-ship missiles " developed by the US military in the scope of procurement discussion. The F-35 itself has strong penetration capabilities. Even if it is deployed with satellite-guided bombs, it can pose a certain threat to other countries' ground targets. If it can carry invisible missiles outside the defense zone, its offensive capability will be further improved.

Military experts said that if the above plan is completed, Japan will carry out a leading strike with various missiles and cooperate with the continuous attack of air forces, which will pose a considerable threat to neighboring countries.

formed gangs and found allies to "stop"

After the end of World War II , Japan has long used the "Japan-US alliance" as the basis axis to ensure its own security, and at the same time it is constantly developing offensive and outward-oriented military forces to enhance its "independent security" capabilities. In order to achieve the "seamless connection" and even "overlapping application" of the above two types of means, Japan needs to seek a delicate balance between continuously strengthening its "autonomous security capabilities" and gradually reducing its dependence on the United States' security. In this process, Japan has been taking the opportunity to enhance its military capabilities.

In recent years, Japan has increased its defense budget for many years and continuously promoted adjustments to defense policies based on the pretext of responding to the so-called "threats of neighboring countries", following "emerging areas", and strengthening international security cooperation. First, it is to create excuses to improve "independent security capabilities", induce domestic public opinion, and provide budget and other support for strengthening offensive military forces; second, it is to strengthen the Japan-US military alliance, hold the United States, and ensure that Japan continues to receive "reliable" protection before achieving "independent security".

Under the restrictions of the epidemic, Japan and the United States still have 118 public joint exercises and training sessions in 2021, involving many types such as joint combat, joint anti-submarine , joint network operations, joint aircraft and landing coordination. These joint exercises are highly practical, and the targets of exercises are becoming more specific.

On the other hand, Japan also strengthened defense cooperation with countries with "common values" on the grounds of "ensure its own security" and "fulfilling alliance obligations", and promoted the outward transformation and use of Japan's military power. In the name of helping Pacific island countries and Southeast Asian countries to "build maritime law enforcement agencies", we carried out multi-faceted military cooperation with them and quietly penetrated the tentacles into the above-mentioned areas.These actions fully demonstrate that Japan is eager to show its presence in the field of international security and hopes to break through the restrictions that the Self-Defense Force can only carry out local defense.

In addition, Japan has signed the "Agreement on the Transfer of Defense Equipment and Technology" with 11 countries including Vietnam, signed the "Agreement on the Transfer of Defense Equipment and Technology" with 9 countries including Germany, signed the "Agreement on the Mutual Provision of Materials and Services" with India and other countries, and established the "2+2" talks mechanism for the "Handle Minister of Defense" with the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany and other countries.

In fact, Japan's real goal is to achieve the so-called "national normalization" at the political and military level, lift the restrictions on Japan's military power by the peace constitution, and gain the status of a political and military power. , the Liberal Democratic Party, which has been dominant in Japanese politics for a long time, clearly stated that "constitutional amendment" or "formulation of a new constitution" is used as the basic policy when formulating or revising the "Party Manifesto and Program".

, especially , Shinzo Abe, , , Suga Yoshihide , and Fumio Kishida, the cabinets have continuously accelerated the promotion of "formulation of a new constitution" and carried out legal and public opinion preparations. Japan attempts to substantively undermine the regulations of the Peace Constitution with its military aggressiveness, and gradually increase the support and tolerance of domestic and foreign public opinion for Japan's "strong army" and "strong army on offensives" and "outward-oriented army" and force Japanese voters to accept and even support the "formulation of a new constitution."

On this basis, Japan frequently conducts military exercises with relevant countries, continuously strengthens the long-sea combat capabilities of the Maritime Self-Defense Force, and continuously strengthens the military presence and partnership in the Indo-Pacific region, which has a negative impact on the security pattern in the Asia-Pacific region. The international community must be highly vigilant.
