Japan is building weapons, but the Pacific Fleet is ready to meet the threat, according to the TELMENEWS.RU news agency
In the Sea of Japan, a Russian Kalibr missile was successfully launched at a ground target from a submarine. The Pacific Fleet reports that the target, which mimicked enemy positions at a training ground in Khabarovsk Territory, was destroyed.
The firing range exceeded 1000 kilometers. The fake enemy’s firing positions have been destroyed. Thus, the Pacific Fleet responded to Japan’s intention to increase the defense budget and receive Tomahawk missiles with a range of up to 2,500 km from the United States. In addition, Tokyo announced its intention to purchase medium-range hypersonic land-based missiles, currently under development in the United States.
The Rybar telegam channel suggests that we can talk about LRHW hypersonic systems, the flight range of which is 2775 km. The Japanese edition of the Sankei reports that the main motive for building up military power is a hypothetical threat from the DPRK and Russia.
“New weapons can be placed on the island of Kyushu – it is the closest to Pyongyang – the straight line distance is no more than 820 km. Only 1,150 km from there to Vladivostok and 1,500 km to in Beijing,” writes Mikhail Zvinchuk, a native of Vladivostok, author of Rybar.
It should be noted that in the Baltic Sea, the ships of project 21631 “Buyan-M” and the missile boat “Dimitrovgrad” entered the exercises. The ships will perform a number of anti-ship and air defense missions.
