Patriot missiles from Japan: Tokyo will allow the US and Europe weapons - the media

According to journalists, Tokyo is going to update the instructions for defense exports on Friday. On Friday, Japan will consider permission to supply your Patriots missiles not only to the United States but also to European countries on Friday. About it reports Nikkei Asia. According to journalists, Tokyo is going to update the instructions for defense exports. This will allow not only missiles, but also other military equipment to the countries where patent owners are available.

For example, now in the US, Japan can supply only the components of licensed equipment. Tokyo is reported to allow the countries receiving military products to transfer it to third countries with prior consent. Of course, the exception is the state where military conflict continues. However, as it is specified, this decision will really help the states to continue supplying their own production to Ukraine.

Washington has already invited the Patriot SCR for the Patriot missiles, as the US army's reserves are exhausted. The publication also noted that Patriot missiles are also important for the defense of Japan itself, for example, to intercept in North Korea ballistic missiles after potential launches. Since Japan has only a small surplus of these missiles, it will need to take steps so that exports do not affect the DPRK.
