安保三文件包括《国家安全保障战略》《国家防卫战略》和《防卫力量整备计划》,2022年审议通过时被视为日本安保政策由守转攻的重大转向。自启动修订以来,日本政府已召开专家会议、自民党通过修订建议草案,并考虑引入人工智能及核动力潜艇等内容。
日本执政党自民党及其执政伙伴日本维新会计划最快于10日召开首次事务层面磋商会议,以推进年内对“安保三文件”的修订。在这次关键磋商前夕,共同社援引知情人士爆料,日本政府考虑在《国家防卫战略》中,明确写入强化“持续作战能力”的内容,相关动向引发争议与担忧。
据悉,日本防卫省曾表示,确保和维持足以应对长期战争的“持续作战能力”已成为一项课题,有必要在和平时期储备相关军事物资,同时建立开战后的增产机制。预计新版《国家防卫战略》将扩大日本政府对防卫产业的参与力度,包括向防卫产业注资、由政府持有重要武器装备生产工厂等。
围绕是否明确写入“持续作战能力”这一表述,日本政府内部存在不同意见。有人担忧,这可能使外界认为日本政府正以战争为前提制定安保政策。
值得一提的是,安保三文件中层级更高的《国家安全保障战略》将不采用“持续作战能力”的表述,而是倾向于使用“持续应对能力”。据了解,这一概念覆盖范围更广,包括强化能源、粮食供应链以及基础设施建设。
急修“安保三文件” 日本军事扩张意图凸显
日本“安保三文件”指的是《国家安全保障战略》《国家防卫战略》和《防卫力量整备计划》这三份文件。“安保三文件”在2022年审议通过时,被认为是标志着二战结束以来日本安保政策“由守转攻”的重大转向。外界普遍认为,如今日本政府紧锣密鼓推进本次修订,是继续掏空战后“专守防卫”原则的关键一步。
自启动修订以来,相关动作持续推进。今年4月27日,日本政府就推进启动“安保三文件”修订工作,召开首次专家会议。日本首相高市早苗在会上提出,日本应推进应对“新型作战方式”的能力,为长期战争做好准备。
6月9日,日本自民党通过了该党拟向日本政府提交的修订“安保三文件”建议草案。草案内容激进,包括大幅增加防卫费、大力发展进攻性军事力量等。
9月23日,日本方面消息称,即将于今年年底修订的“安保三文件”将把人工智能的全面应用作为防卫能力建设重点,其中的《防卫力量整备计划》草案更是提出,要购买超过5万台无人装备。
10月7日,日方消息称,日本政府将在今年年底修订的“安保三文件”中,考虑写入“探讨引进核动力潜艇”的相关内容。

The submarine Haikun was floating in Kaohsiung Port on October 13 when white smoke emitted from its main engine when it was activated. It is now in dock for adjustment.

GAO said parts records are incorrect, data is incomplete, cannot be tracked in real time, and contractor systems cannot connect to government logistics systems, affecting the ability to detect fraud, waste or theft.
