U.S. Media: The Japanese government is accelerating the adjustment of its defense strategy, planning to significantly increase military spending in the next fiscal year and allocate more funds to advanced equipment such as drones and missiles, while also expanding ammunition reserves.
Japan's Ministry of Defense has recently submitted a record-breaking defense budget request of approximately 8.9 trillion yen (about $556 billion), marking the largest scale in history.
Japanese officials stated that the current security environment is considered the most severe since the end of World War II, making the enhancement of defense capabilities a key policy priority. This budget adjustment reflects Japan's growing emphasis on long-range strike capabilities, unmanned warfare, and sustained operational support, indicating further transformation in its military policy.
