In a dramatic pivot from its post-WWII pacifist tradition, Japan is rapidly expanding its military capabilities with a massive focus on uncrewed systems, artificial intelligence, and long-range strike technologies. Facing escalating security challenges in the Indo-Pacific—including China's military expansion and regional missile threats—Tokyo has unveiled a record 8.9 trillion yen ($55.6B) defense budget request.
Drawing vital lessons from modern conflicts in Ukraine, Japan's Defense Ministry is integrating attack drones like the 'Drone 40' alongside long-range counterstrike missiles to mitigate domestic troop shortages caused by an aging population. From easing long-standing lethal arms export restrictions to joint military drills in the north, watch how Japan is transforming its Self-Defense Forces into a high-tech deterrence power.
