日媒披露,日本10月與美國舉行大規模演習期間,將出動陸上自衛隊長程飛彈「25式陸基反艦飛彈」。這將是「25式陸基反艦飛彈」首度投入到大規模演習,但預計不會實際發射。
共同社與「朝日新聞」今天報導,日本防衛省今年3月起在熊本的健軍駐屯地部署「25式陸基反艦飛彈」(12式陸基反艦飛彈增程改良型)。這種長程飛彈能打擊對手的攻擊據點,因此部署這種飛彈代表日本首度保有「反擊能力」(敵基地攻擊能力)。
「25式陸基反艦飛彈」為日本國產,從九州發射的話,射程可達中國沿岸以及台灣周邊海域。
日本自衛隊與美軍將在10月啟動雙方每兩年舉行一次的「利劍」(Keen Sword)演習,模擬日本遭受武力攻擊等情況。雙方將動員數萬名兵力,在日本各地及周邊海域、空域展開實兵操演。這場演習與以電腦模擬及桌上推演為主的「利刃」(Keen Edge)大致交替舉行。
防衛省的消息人士透露,配合上述演習,正在協調於熊本縣的大矢野原演習場部署「25式陸基反艦飛彈」的操作部隊與發射車輛等,雙方屆時將共享攻擊目標相關資訊,並確認發射程序,但不會實際發射飛彈。
共同社指出,雙方希望藉此確認長程飛彈投入實戰所須的日美合作。
「朝日新聞」則解讀,此舉有意針對持續擴大軍備的中國。日本長期奉行「專守防衛」,如今將邁入新局面。
防衛省預定10月3日在健軍駐屯地,首次向當地居民展示裝備。此外,防衛省也在協調召開「利劍」演習說明會。有熊本人擔心該地恐成為攻擊目標,對於部署「25式陸基反艦飛彈」抱持疑慮。
「專守防衛」是日本長久以來的防衛政策,基於和平憲法以防衛為原則,不攻擊敵國基地;依據憲法精神採取被動性防衛戰略。不過,專守防衛隨著時代演變,歷任內閣都各自賦予相應定義。

Japan will deploy long-range "Type 25 land-based anti-ship missiles" for the first time in the "Sharp Sword" exercise with the United States in October, cooperating with the US military to share target information and confirm launch procedures, but will not conduct live ammunition firing. The move is aimed at strengthening Japan-US cooperation and responding to China's arms expansion.

Recent Houthi attacks on Saudi energy and military sites are testing the newly signed Mecca Joint Defence Agreement between Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey.

The latest test flight video of China's new generation of tailless heavy-duty stealth fighter "J-36" has been exposed, revealing that it uses a two-dimensional thrust vector nozzle similar to the US F-22, a three-engine configuration and a light-colored radome, indicating that the aircraft is still in the continuous modification stage.

The U.S. Navy established the Robotics and Autonomous Systems Warfighting Development Center (RASWDC) in Virginia to integrate air, sea and underwater unmanned systems, formulate tactics, train sailors and feed back actual combat experience to procurement units to maintain maritime tactical superiority.

Taiwan has accelerated the production of more than 1,000 Hsiung Feng series missiles in the past five years, but the number actually launched in previous exercises has only been about 15 to 25. The military stated that this move was to prevent the Communist army from calculating life expectancy and save the defense budget, and to use a scientific re-examination mechanism to maintain combat readiness levels.

Former U.S. Rep. Gallagher wrote a letter to the Wall Street Journal warning that Taiwan is the world's advanced semiconductor hub. If China launches a blockade or invasion, the U.S. AI industry will face a severe impact on research and development stagnation and supply chain disruption. The U.S. should incorporate Taiwan's defense into its semiconductor and AI strategy.
