> MR. GREEN: You gave us the thinking about the F-2 and procurement and you mentioned that FMS is expensive, takes a lot of time and it is an increasing part of Japan’s procurement budget, FMS.
Are you worried that Japan is losing its defense industrial base, that too much FMS from the U.S. is weakening Japan’s own defense and aerospace industry base?
Or are we in a new era where Japan can’t think about its own autonomous defense industrial base, it has to think about a broader sharing of technology exports, development with other likeminded countries?
How do you think about the defense industrial base with the new Mid-Term Defense Plan?

>MR. IWAYA: As to the successor of the F-2, from five perspectives we’ll be studying this. When we do that, a very important element will be domestic industry participation.
But in this day and age for one country just to make a fighter jet by itself, it’s just really not the way things are going.
Even the F-35 was a multinational effort. So we would like to have our industry lead, but joint development and research with other countries will be considered.
And when I say other countries, I mean considering cooperation with the United States, but it would have to be led by – we would like to do development that’s led by the Japanese industry.
