“Japanese authorities try to find
the best way to cooperate with United States on defending the far and flung
islands. Perhaps we are interested in adding amphibious assault ship from America
as its arsenal”, this was the statement said by the Japan Defense
Minister Onodera on its recent trip to United States.
“The importance of gaining the Know-how
plays such a role towards engaging operational activities”. Onodera
said to reporters.
Japan's plan to make amphibious
vehicles to guard is islands and repel invaders, as of now Japans defense ministry
is on eye with Osprey this can land and take off like helicopter and can fly
fast as plane. The budget for this vehicle will be included by 2018.
United States and Japans updated defense
guideline was being done this year since 1997 almost 2 decades. The main
challenge for the defense guideline is the rising power of China on the Naval
Areas. With that action made by China,
Japan bolsters defense.
Just this month PM Abe approved
the deploying of SDF for unexpected situations in “gray zone”.
