This year's exercise included drills on island defense, tank firing, drone-based intelligence gathering, and showcased unmanned ground vehicles currently under development.
The exercise also featured the unveiling of the "Type 25 High-Speed Glide Bomb" launch system. These weapons can be deployed to strike enemy bases in times of crisis. The weapons were deployed to the Fujisan Ground Self-Defense Force Base in March this year, marking the first public display of their launch systems.
