Defensenews.com berichtet, Japan habe seinen allerersten großen Rüstungsexport „erfolgreich“ unter Dach und Fach gebracht: „Japan has concluded its first export sale of major defense equipment, with the Philippines signing a contract for fixed and mobile air surveillance radars to cover potential flashpoints around the country, including the South China Sea. […] The deal between the two U.S. allies is significant, as it marks the first time Japan will export complete defense articles after it relaxed self-imposed restrictions on such sales in 2014.” (jw)
