- The Japanese Maritime Self Defence Force, or JMSDF, has one of the world's largest naval combat force. However, it has a glaring weakness that nobody talks about.

Probably in a better state than the Royal Navy…our trident don’t work our carriers are broken we have far to few aircraft. To few attack subs 😢
Chinese and Russians don't disclose failed tests. It doesn't mean they don't happen .... if anything it probably means more failures.
You need 5G wifi first and highspeed rail first, not some warships to invade other countries’s water.
The biggest problem with JMSDF is it’s serving the US and not Japan. The force structure is designed to compliment the US Navy, not to secure Japanese trade routes nor defend Japan
as expected for a nation whose constitution was drafted by the US
Yeah, come test them, instead of running your deluded mouth. Deluded hystericaled south China Sea nonsense.
That's because if JAPAN does not do this, Japan will see the Sun again up close.
LOL.
A servant must serve his master USA. All else are hoax
Well.. yeah, that's because defending supply lines is America's job
The JMSDF is level capped by the US. It is allowed to have enough ships to run errand for the US and be the meat shield for the 7th fleet in a conflict. However, it can never have capability that can threaten US naval dominance.
Hence the JMSDF is devoid of strike and logistics capabilities, despite having the technology and ship building capacity to massively expand in both areas.
This is like the feudal era, where the King have the strongest army in the kingdom but would call upon his vassal's forces in wars. However, a competent king would never allow any of his aristocrats to have armies that can threaten his own, regardless of the enemy's strength. Britain and France are allies, Japan and Korea are vassal's, hence their very different structures and capabilities.
japan hasnt farmed enough gold coins or experience points
@@antwango meh, account got burned back then. they starting new smurf rn
That’s quite an extreme position
Yeah its crazy that the americans have the powers to amend a constitution of a supposedly "sovereign" nation. Indeed, japan is merely a meat shield for the US navy.
Exactly
The lack of Blue Water capability is deliberate according to the USN Strategic objectives with the USN maintaining a Blue Water Carrier Strike Force whereas Japan and South Korea are regionally situated to contain the Chinese Navy within the three Island Chains. especially the 1st and second Island Chains of containment. America will naturally assume global hegemony of Blue Water Dominance with 11 Carrier Strike Groups. The Only challenge to the Blue Water dominance has allways been the Russian Navy, especially the SSBN Borei and the SSN Yasen Submarines. However, the Chinese future Blue Water Fleet will once and for all challenge the American Blue Water dominance within the next half century. I am certain that China will overtake America within the next century.
with the way things are playing out, id give it till next week... the west is in undeniable and perpetual decline with no end or positive approach in sight..... the uk now come out as in recession which actually happened last year, china holds all of the cards, obviously the collective west will not admit to being in decline for the next half century.... the west is in collective denial refusing to cooperate with Russia and or China, the main powers that have the resources and are the wests manufacturers
I have been building an Excel database of all warships of the past 150 years for all of the worlds major powers. I recently completed China and its smaller craft down to DD level and I can see why the US is pissing itself - the PLAN has been growing by around 100,000 tons every year for the past 5-6 years and it is only accelerating.
My guess is that the PLAN will overtake the USN by 2035 or so in numbers, tonnage and combat capability.
Absolutely, agree with your assessment.@@rags417
Let’s be realistic, carriers are obsolete by today’s standards. Hyspersonics and naval drones are there, only requires a few well designed small stealth hull filled with fap 500 loads whether are small sub drones or boats, those are a nightmare during day imagine at night. Carriers were important as battleships used to be prior but things change constantly nonstop. Let’s put a practical example russia just like china applies collapsing tactics. In resume counter measure are only possible if one produces cheap ships on large amounts filled with cheap yet good and fast enough defenses. And not a single NATO member neither japan produces good enough defenses at low prices. Starting with labor work that usually costs 14 times more per hour against russian and chinese labor workforce.
@@rags417 I heard a rumor that China built too many ships and lacked staff to fill the ship
Japan not only has old naval ships, they also have old sailors manning those ships.... average age in the JSDF is over 35 y/o....

Japan is not a sovereign country. When US says jump, Japan vassal state will respond back: how high?
Japan's navy after WW2 was never designed to be a blue water navy, it's more or less a defensive force. If a war does break out in the Pacific, the Japanese economy would grind to a halt, because most if not all of their ships would be blockaded. Without oil, and other natural resources, the Japanese economy would collapse.
Japan's economy will collapse because all its biggest factories are in China. SONY, Toyota, Toshiba, Suzuki etc have more employees in China than in Japan. However China's economy will be equally hurt. US would be a clear winner, both militarily and economicaly. No wonder US is pushing for war.
The JMSDF is still satisfactory for its needs, self defence. Its limited blue water capacities is still most likely enough for what it needs due to Japans large amounts of softpower and extensive allies.
Japan only has one military ally, far less than the European countries that do in fact have blue water capabilities. It's in actual fact one of the developed countries with the weakest network of close partners.
Vassals gonna vassal
The information in this video was useful. Thx!
The Wokou navy was very impressive in the 1980s when China's most capable ships were the Luda DDG with HY-2 SSM and hand operated AAA. And when the PLANAF front line fighter was the uselessly short range J-6 with no radar and armed with just 3 AA cannons.

Japanese submarines have often taken a decision of the sinking of the aircraft carrier in simulated combat with the US Navy.
It kinda sounds like Japan is still thinking from a defensive point of view instead of a more active participant.
Yes but actually no and they actually don't need to be.
@@user-gu8qi4me8x I have heard that if China does attack Taiwan then Japan would go to defend them (not sure if it's entirely true), which would force them into an offensive position since China wants to avoid getting anyone but Taiwan involved and will likely focus on surrounding Taiwan and defending from there. The US is too unreliable to respond effectively so soon, so it sounds to me that, in a war, Japan would have to be heavily reliant on friendly navies to continue wartime operations. This is just how I see it currently, feel free to explain your side.
@@Saffi____ l actually have never been so effended by something that l actually 100% agree with.
Defensive is written in their constitution which was written by US.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sayonara JPN.
Im currently doing a research report on the JMSDF and i completely agree with the video here, the best and worst thing about the navy is that its purely defensive by nature and constitution. Especially with its naval strength but centered around only a handful of advanced aegis destroyers, a couple mogamis and their helicopter carriers unlike the us navy, a serious hit would effectively neutralize their capability as a fighting force on the high seas.
Another excellent video, ENI. An idea for a future video might be the US Navy's sustainment capability in the Western Pacific, particularly regarding fuel tankers. That could be an important consideration given the US probably won't be able to refuel in Japan or South Korea.
DF-27 will stop US tankers too
The JMSDF was limited by its constitution and only until recently did the people of Japan decide to revise its constitution to expand its military. It is difficult and unfair to compare it to other Navies as its purpose is generally limited to self-defense.
The reason for Pearl Harbour was the US's blockade of commercial ship access. One would have expected that the ability to prevent such an event ever happening again would be Japan's number one Naval priority.
I actually genuinely agree with you and finally some one who l found in the comment section that actually has a functioning brain for once
Not a blockade, it was an critical resource embargo because they invaded China
Since when did a trade embargo (not selling oil,rubber, other materials needed to wage war)become a naval blockade????

What a Bold statement, What a Bold Title
This video has really brough out the haters.
Eurasia Naval Insight! Brought to you by the CCP!
its abit unfair to say the japanese navy is bad because it lacks long range power projection. Thats the same argument used against china. If anything the problem with japan is its lack of antiship capabilities outside of submarines. All japanese warships are armed with subsonic AShM at best and can't hold a candle to chinese warships.
Japanese aerial antiship capabilities aren't any better either.
Tangent but I like how their Burke version has a much taller bridge. Dunno, just looks more interesting.
I don't think it is weakness meant to be fixed or rated to be good or bad. if you define good for "Blue Water Navy", JMSDF would be bad. but Military is just the tool of politics, and performing power projection which only just for defending sea lane is huge cost. It would be cost ineffective bad tool. But since you consider Japan wage war on China (15:35) which never be goal of politics, in that case JMSDF is bad.
コメント欄であんたが1番全体を俯瞰できてるよ
The sea area on the Chinese side of Japan is extremely shallow, making it difficult for nuclear submarines to make full use of it. Also, if you apply the cost of over 20 diesel submarines to nuclear submarines, you would only be able to buy about 2 or 3 submarines, which would not be good in terms of cost performance.
With the addition of lithium-ion batteries to the power sources of Japanese submarines, we believe that they will be able to conduct sufficient operations within the range that allows sailors to maintain their composure.
This video is actually genuinely underated and damm
so, we cant depend on JSMDF to defend against Kaiju ?
Duh, that's what Gundams are for.
Compare the British 2 carriers, Indian 2 carriers and the 2 Chinese carriers would still be a nice video to look for.
HA! the british lol, officialy in recession! run by jokers, ships crashing just maneuvering at their own dock! And sabotage and corruption even before ships are even launched! and the ozzies are relying on the collective idiots to give them subs??? yeah after witnessing the titan which was greenlighted by americans for americans and colonial buddies to visit and then explode fittingly at the burial place of the titanic! give china a few more years and the gap and disparity will be even larger
Japan is only able to defend itself but not able to support US aggression against China. Is that a problem for any country but US?
That would be true if jp had friendly relations with china. Currently, they are poised to follow the american script meaning should war happen, japan will get a blockade situation and have to beg the US to do something about it. It didnt know that they were this reliant on sea based trade :(

The USS Zumalt is nothing but failure as the focus on coastal attack are outdated which result in project cancel for further ships and end up with another white elephant. Most US sailors are poorly trained as display by 2 navy accident in Japan and strait of Malacca with poorly manned destroyer causing the collision.

12:44 That has to be some of the most atrocious marching I've ever seen...

Supposedly Japan is converting the small islands between Japan and Taiwan with bases along the way to act like land carrier bases, so that may be the counter punch.
I guess if they end up depending on US Naval logistics, they'll have to learn to eat potatoes instead of rice! ;-)
If america decreases its role in the middle east, than Japan will have to increase its naval assets to secure those sea routes.
Actually Japan has very powerful navy to defend itself and operate around the Japanese coastline. The post WWII Japanese navy was not build for power projection OR far off operations. They were built only to operate around Japan that's why they have very less logistical ships. So this is by design and intentionally. Ofcourse US enforced this strategy for Japanese Navy. However, slowly and graduallly Japan is changing this approach.
Due to alliances, Japan does not have to rely on keeping their supply lines open by themselves.
Japanese Navy is now catching tuna to make susi for UASS..All the tec they achieved are now sunk in Atlantic …
The JMSDF ships are meant to work in conjunction with the USN ones. That's probably why the USN locates the headquarter of its largest fleet, the 7th Fleet, at Yokosuka. The combined force from fleets of the two countries is more than adequate to defend Japanese martime interests.
I’m guessing our WWII fleet submarines made one helluva an impression on the Japanese…. they really, really don’t like submarines over in that part of the world, huh?
I’d always thought Japan had one of the largest and modern Navy in the world.
i would put Japan slightly ahead of Russia now .. Japan has better logistics, better Carrier fleet , better helicpter carrier fleet, better frigate and destroyer fleet and an equal diesel sub fleet.... only areas Russia beats Japan navy is Corvettes with limited range and the sub fleet, nuke subs that japan doesnt have but Japan navy is completely optimized for anti sub warfare anyway. Japan Navy is far more modern than Russia and well mantained with more large fighting ships, Russia is also at the limit of its budget where Japan has room to double or triple its Navy if it wanted to its only 1.2 percent defence spendingn now
Never ever underestimate the capability of the Japanese Naval power and they ill intention
The JMSDF is a glorified subsidy program for Mitsubishi Heavy.
There’s only a few ships are capable to defend themselves from China however the rest are crap .
I don’t underestimate the Japanese navy because it is manned by the Japanese. Some of the best warriors in the world.
Interestingly, your description of the Japanese navy is very similar to that of China and South Korea. All three are extremely dependent on import and export, ergo sea lanes. All three have extremely long sea lanes. All three can not adequately defend the sea lanes should a war break out
Unlike Chona or South Korea, Japan is restricted by its Constitution and they are barred from unilateral changes. But, unlike China, the United States is treaty obligated to defend Japan to include defending its overseas supply line. The US purposely limited Japan's expeditionary capabilities to the relief of Japan's neighbors. It also made Japan dependent the US as intended.
PLAN had been violating the US-Jap Defence Pact Daily for a few years now, the US didn't do a thing about it.
Do Japanese know that Godzilla is not real?
4 light carriers//NOPE
There is a nuance to this.
China & many other Asia Pacific countries,actually until recent decades appreciated US presence (and control of Japan)
US basically prevents Japan from offensive re-armament, hence no real carriers or nuclear capability
This is the reason for the Japanese Naval set up.
Therefore China & US whilstbin conpetition are also aligned in this respect.
US is guarantor of Japan's trade routes, which is why Japan (in words at least) generallyvtoes a US line.
If Japan became more independent of the US shadow, there are benefits but also pitfalls.
A more nationalistic Japan without its master/shogun (the US) may re-arm but/or it may also conduct more independent foreign policy.
The lack of a US nuclear umbrella however may also mean a Japanese nuclear pursuit. In that Uncle Sam will like China prob not prefer.

Where are the Japanese MEN to man their military?? MALE population of JAPAN has shrunk greatly and only OLD workers remains in the military. MANY Japanese Youths do NOT believed in their military due to MANY reasons. As such their military strength are significantly weaken.
Japan does not even think of attacking anyone, except in self defense. Then partners like USA with enormous resources will come into play and Japan navy shall have secondary roles, that it is fit for purpose. On defensive role, land assets like Air power F15 fleet Helicopters and long range Missile (acquiring 100 s of American) forces, F35 planes in many squadron strength will be able to give a bloody nose to China and North Korea. It is likely that QUAD will turn into a defense partnership in next decade adding Massive Indian forces to the mix. So the future is not very risky! And at the end of the day the warmongering is becoming less and less possible, in this world of partnerships of nations.

Really dude now everybody are experts on everything,Japan is expanding it's navy and planning to build more carriers att least they don't have tofu carriers like China or Russias Moskva witch Ukrainians sunk🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Japan is restricted by two major factors: the budget and the constitutional article 9 that limits its military capabilities. The Japanese understand that they are woefully under equipped to stop China. Thus they increased the budget, however the JSDF are still limited by their political pacificism. For how limited the JSDF has been, it's actually quite impressive how effective their acquisition programs have been. The Japanese have never overspent on a warship and nearly all their programs are delivered timely and with all their capabilities when launched. That in itself is a massive advantage when Japan needs to ramp up military production during wartime. They have an extremely reliable economy to produce high quality defense procurements within a reasonable budget.
Stop china? China remembers what this military did. China remembers.
This video is so "ignorant" of obvious factors that it's not even funny.
1) Japan lacks "blue water" capabilities because that's NOT Japan's goal;j they WILL HAVE ONE, the minute they decide to have one. They had one when China was still manning "junk" boats!
2) Strategically, it's FAR EASIER to enforce a naval blockade on China than on Japan. Easy to see that both the author and many commentators don't know/overlook China's location on the map, totally barred access to the sea by potential enemies, entirely surrounded by unfriendly Nations, and totally blocked access to the wider Pacific by the same Japan some here believe are simply too stupid and too weak to do anything if push comes to shove!
A few thousand sea mines dropped along the Miyako straights, plus Japan parking its not totally incapable submarine assets in the Southern choke points and China's navy is going nowhere. They will have to use Afghanistan roads to buy any oil they need. Add the US Navy to the blockade, sit down, and see what happens.
3) China relies on oil, and many other minerals imports also. That can be cut too!

This is such a rubbish video. The Japanese Navy is designed as a self defence force not one for projecting power. So to criticise it for that is just silly. It's in a lot better state than the RN. Japan also has the retained the capacity to build modern ships quickly, which other western nations seem to have lost. In fact, this video is so biased you would almost think it's PRC propaganda.
Behave correctly toward your Asian neighbors, coexist peacefully then Japan will have nothing to worry, or any supply line to defend! No need to waste resources in arms race.
Never be a pawn to fight for any alien nation which live outside the region, never be the cannon fodder of the external party that lives far away from Asia. Be a pawn then you will pay steep price... just look at the fate of Ukraine!
So, be a sovereign, be a full independent, set good relationship with your Asian neighbors then Japan will have nothing to be afraid of. And considering the past very bleak history in Asia from 1930s till 1945, Japan must be very careful not to hit the old wounds which have been long buried... let the wounds heal over time... don't scratch it again...

There is one factor that need to be kept in mind that is distance between japan and it's enemies (china and north Korea)that is about 500km on average that is well under the range of land based radar and missile system this mean japan can deal with air and surface naval threat with land based missile systems alone, this is the reason why jmsdf is so focused on ASW. A war between China and japan will mostly be electronic warfare and slug fist of missile. If japan deploy long range missile on the Kyushu island chain that will itself be enough to deal with china. But I agree japan needs power progressive capabilities, they need destroyers with heavy anti ship and anti air capabilities and support vessels. But japan's biggest weakness is it's self imposed restriction unless japan can remove Article 9 of its constitution which forbids having a military japan can never became a true superpower.
If missiles were all that one needed to defend against blockades, one has to wonder why navies even exist given the range of modern missile systems....
I expect jp will find out the hard way that you need actual assets on the ground to safe guard your trade routes.
@@alispeed5095 well think about it lets say u r china and attack japan how many ships can u bring for assault and and how anti -air missile ur warships can hold vs japan who can infinitely spam anti-ship missile or cruise missile from land or air as long they can produce them.

And for ur question why we have navies that because a country might need to fight another country which on the other side of the ocean about 2000 km away. Anti-ship or cruise are really strong deferent just look at Ukraine-Russia war, Russian Navy is able to do much and even got their flagship sunk by Ukrainian missile.
Japan never paid for her sins of imperialism. removing article 9 would be detrimental... as to missiles - Chinese missiles can cover all of China from land - without the navy.... so how would that work??
The Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution was imposed by the U.S. who forbids the Japanese to have an offensive army.
And after that video Japan has become the third country which gonna spending In their military after the USA and china man that doesn’t look good for the neighbors country 😅
The title of this video is inherently misleading.
Japan's navy is only "worse than you think" if viewed from the limited lens of blue-water capabilities--a mission that the JMSDF has never made their primary focus anyway because of constitutional limitations against power projection and using war as a tool of foreign policy. Hence, if accurately assessed against their primary mission of self-defense, Japan's navy is actually quite capable for defending its home islands.
And let's not forget: whatever inherent "weakness" Japan has for blue-water operations is--by design--complemented by the US 7th Fleet. The JMSDF's ongoing warming of relations and military interoperability efforts with South Korea and the Philippines only further strengthens cooperation and improves the alliance's military potency.
This is what China-friendly commentators fail to always acknowledge, it seems: military alliances are always better than going it alone. China may have the biggest navy right now, but against the full might of the US Navy-led alliance in the region, it simply is no match. After all, China only has North Korea and Russia as its allies in the region--and we all know how reliable and capable that "alliance" is. :)
The Houtis dont agree with you.
The Taliban dont agree with you.
But keep watching Bollywood or Hollywood movies.

You are missing the point. If Japan has to depend on US. Then it is weak. Your argument do not prove the video wrong. Rather it confirms Japan cannot challenge any major navy.
Military alliances might be an effective deterrent against starting a war against any of their members, but not necessarily an effective countermeasure once one starts.
Also, one has to ask whether US military alliances are actually a deterrent at all, since the United States has many other options in its strategic toolbox to secure its interests, such as economic sanctions, proxy wars, supporting local grassroots movements, etc. etc. that don't directly involve its military forces in costly and potentially risky demonstrations of force. Every time we've seen US military alliances demonstrate their potential in recent decades, it has involved illegal invasions and attacks on isolated and smaller nations combined with or after the above described tools. However we see traces of these tools being used by the US and its military allies outside of direct military conflicts anyway, and since there's no formal declaration of war against another nation even while clearly acting to influence decisions within its borders, there is strong sign of intent to coerce and subvert local governments. That goes beyond deterring other nations from military attacks against US military alliances, and crosses into establishing new vassal regimes and destabilizing regions.
And it's not like the US flavour of military alliance can't be countered by larger, better integrated nations. All the other options it uses are to weaken and isolate other nations, but if they don't work then military containment and direct attacks become far more risky and carry less potential for gains, not to mention the targets of these actions will naturally respond by strengthening their resilience to coercion and subversion, use other means to weaken US influence in their area, and seek military alliances of their own with other powers, thus negating any claim of a deterrent for the US or its allies.
There's also the nature of the US military alliance - when actually used to contain large and strong powers, it always involves pitting weaker nations against their neighbours, usually as a type of tripwire. The lack of sufficient military balance without the United States means the high chance of inflicting major and potentially crippling damage against its allies before an actual effective military response. Despite local understanding of US requirements to maintain hegemony, there is always a fear by the local population of US domestic politics creating unpredictable variations in its government's commitment to back local regimes once conflict has started. When a stronger nation attacks a weak nation, not only does the United States need that weaker nation to contribute to total victory against the aggressor, but it also has to ensure the weaker nation doesn't collapse under the burden of military spending, political infighting, low public confidence, and general societal instability, all of which are reasons for US military allies collapsing and signs for the US military to pull out and cut their losses.
The shift towards backing local regional alliances, as opposed to direct supervision of individual allies, is a clear sign of fading US military power, but not necessarily economic power. The United States will play a greater role in propping up the economies of its allies even as they weaken from uncompetitive local labour, aging and overly urbanized populations, and declining foreign investment potential, as they will continue borrowing in US dollars to fund expenditures. However this will only be temporary. It will not prevent these local allies from looking elsewhere to trade in dollars, and should other countries demonstrate sufficient growth potential, then the likelihood of these allies making bilateral currency swap deals, and trading in local currencies with these countries, is high, thus weakening dependency on the United States and incentive to maintain belligerence toward neighbours. That is the one thing that a US military presence has curtailed, and which in the end will force the US government to cut its spending and confront the astronomical debt which it had previously forced other countries to pay for through the abuse of the dollar's reserve currency status.
If japans navy cant protect the trade routes japan needs to survive. What use is it? This is what the video is stressing. Japans entire plan is to rely on the US to protect it (specifically the trade routes). Is one wrong to call that weak?
China & Japan have the same problem. It is insoluble. They need to import and the supply routes are vulnerable. The Chinese are marginally better prepared. Japan would not fight China alone. The US would spring to its defence if Japan is attacked by China.
China hasn't attacked Japan in the thousands of years they lived side by side (except when the Mongols ruled). China wouldn't now unless Japan stuck its nose in on behalf of the US. And you think Russia and North Korea would sit and let China get ganged up on by the US and Japan???
Russia is at its weakest point right now and not in a position to attack anyone other than Ukraine. If it did, it would lose the war in Ukraine immediately as it has suffered humongous losses so far. North Korea is a paper tiger. Have you seen its air force and its navy? They are pathetic. A war would result in regime change. The CCP whips up animosity against the Japanese frequently, so much that a war with Japan is possible if Japan supports Taiwan (and Japan will support Taiwan if it is invaded).@@Amidat
@@gs547 China haters did say China was a paper tiger. Now, they say it's a threat for the whole world. North Korea has made tremendous military modernization. Now it has hypersonic missiles, in addition to its nuclear arsenal. Do Japan and South Korea have such missiles ? Furthermore, Russia buys North Korean rockets and missiles, not only they're cheaper but they're also effective. Even if North Korea is lagging behind Western military technology, the country keeps on modernizing its army.
It is a paper tiger. Guess what its GDP was in 2019? 18 billion dollars. The budget of my city with a population of 1.1 million is 4.7 billion for 2024. Fortunately, my city does not have to fund a military. Don't believe all the military blog hype. Use your analytical skills.@@user-ne6xw1sv4u
Your main criticism is basically that Japan can't project its power (which it can) but thats not its main objective and that Japan lacks replenishment for long distance missions: ever heard of Japans Allies, maybe USA, Australia, India? The US would assist Japan on any long distance deployments with replenishment and so on, and that won't change in the future.
Interesting how most Western/Western allied Equipment or Military is portrayed by this Channel as Overhyped or worse than you think. But then everything regarding the PLAN is great and completely undervalued and has no problems...
"However shier numbers and size can be decieving, disguising many of the little known and unknown weaknesses beneath the surface."
I agree fully with this statement, but not only in regards to this Navy but also other Navies, like the Russian or Chinese one, but that was never mentioned on this channel.
If Japan is at war with China then the US is at war with China (no, don't try to argue with me on that. I was stationed in Japan and we have plans for the defense of Japan, and we have regular exercises with the Japanese Self Defense forces). China will be busy trying to defend its own supply lines from the US Navy. China doesn't have many military bases outside of China (yet). So even with a blue water navy, the PLAN will have serious problems in a war against Japan and the US.
so you think China doesn't know US plans??? those things are easily observed from China.
China doesn't need overseas bases to fight japan ya dumb cunt. Yanks are not going to war for nips with a nuclear powwr
The outdated US Navy won't survive for long it the US is dumb enough to try to attack China's supply lines.
The accuracy of the Chinese missiles is suspect.
please keep thinking that way.
Don't forget Japan has to ask its U.S. master's permisson to modernize its army, including the building of cutting-edge warships and aircraft in very limited numbers. That's why we still see old warships in duty.
Why are you making a big deal of japan being dependent on energy exports and vulnerable to a blockade when china suffers the exact same issue and here you are never making any videos that would make the PLAN look bad
only because plan is ACTUALLY very powerful really,they are on totally different level
The Japanese ships are actuality floating Bars and Brothels meant to serve American sailors.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Happy ending boats?
Floating comfort stations
Lets see what we have on chinese national prpaganda today.
Anyone relay on western technology
Will never have a strong military
We all saw how shitty the western weapons in Ukraine
Dude, Japan's navy is the best in Asia. Just look at their submarines and that of China. Is this channel becoming China echo chamber??😢
Not sure if it is becoming CCP propaganda but it is good to hear from every angle.
listen to his arguments and evaluate it for yourself, whether you agree or not. Don't look at the title and stop because that doesn't provide enough information
China has nuclear sub. Chinese sub has circled the world 30 year ago. Can any Japanese sub do that even today?
Japanese submarine is better than Chinese submarine 🇯🇵
