Recently, the global situation has become increasingly tense. Whether in Europe or Asia, the existence of the United States has led to deeper and deeper conflicts between many countries. However, there are two sides to everything. It can be said that there are opportunities when there are challenges, and Japan only sees opportunities, but not at all.
According to previous media reports, the Japanese Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Finance suddenly increased military expenditure, increasing the military expenditure of Japanese Self-Defense Forces to 40 trillion yen in the five years from 2023 to 2027, which is equivalent to about 2 trillion yuan. You know, this is Japan's real big investment in recent years. In 2018, the Japanese Ministry of Defense proposed that the military expenditure in the past five years was only about 27 trillion yen from 2019 to 2023. Now, only about five years have passed, Japan has suddenly increased its military expenditure to 1.5 times the previous one.
So where will it be used? First of all, it must be , the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force , which is the best among the Japanese Self-Defense Forces. With two Aegis-class warships, the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Forces have made them extremely proud.
However, according to the needs of these two warships, Japan will still need to purchase a complete set of Aegis anti-missile interception systems in the future, and also need to purchase anti-missile missiles with a unit price of tens of millions of dollars. This expenditure alone requires trillions of yen as a backing. If the renovation of the Izumo-class helicopter destroyer and the construction costs of the Big Whale-class submarine are included. I can only say that Japan's appetite is not average and I am ready to eat it in one go.
Of course, the Japanese Air Self-Defense Force is also the country's development focus, especially Japan's air self-defense company, and plans to directly increase the original purchase order of 42 F-35A fighter jets to 105. Although these war opportunities are delivered around 2025, Japan is willing to wait. Unfortunately, Japan may not know that it has blindly improved the strength of the Self-Defense Force and is probably going to "put a lot of money" for this.
After all, in addition to planning to import F-35, Japan also plans to transform its F-15J fighter jets. This fighter has been continued in Japan since the 1980s and is also planned to be built according to the standards of Japanese super interceptors. In other words, the purpose of the Japanese Ministry of Defense to increase military expenditure is to indirectly improve the strength of air and sea self-superiority, and the Land Self-Defense Force is not considered at all.
After all, Japan seems to have smelled a sense of danger, ready to follow the United States at any time, and take the opportunity to exchange it for a lot of benefits behind the scenes. The offensive method that the United States has always been good at is that the Air Force and Navy cooperate with each other, so there is no need for Japan to enhance the strength of the Land Self-Defense Force.
can only be said about this. As the United States continues to rush behind the scenes and the global situation continues to heat up, it is very likely that many countries will fight. By then, there will be revenge and revenge. The only uncertain thing is whether Japan will "stab" the knife in the back at a critical moment? Don’t forget that the tragic situation of the people in Hiroshima and Nagasaki still vividly remembers the Japanese authorities. It can even be said that Japan has always been a country with great "ambition", so it is better to be careful when facing Japan.
