In May, Japan launched missiles outside its territorial waters for the first time since World War II. This is not a drill but a fundamental shift in military doctrine. Under Prime Minister Takaichi, Tokyo has increased defense spending once more, relaxed restrictions on arms exports, sold warships to allied nations, and conducted live-fire missile exercises in joint military drills.
