the reorganization of the japan maritime self-defense force is the climax of japan’s continuous innovation in defense budget in recent years. its huge defense investment means stronger military strength. the maritime self-defense forces not only carried out reforms in the new command structure and the strengthening of the army, navy and air self-defense forces, but also increased investment in the field of intelligence warfare. the strategic penetration of intelligence warfare will enable the japan maritime self-defense force to develop a more powerful strike capability.

after the "amphibious and minesweeping combat group" is reorganized, it will become a powerful amphibious fleet, equipped with helicopter carriers, air-cushion landing craft and other equipment, and its power projection capabilities will be significantly improved. the new destroyers and minesweepers will strengthen its sea control and power projection capabilities and further expand the operational scope of the japan maritime self-defense force.

the assumptions of japan's "three security documents" and media disclosures indicate that the pla navy plans to reorganize its "water fleet" according to a new system of 6 groups and 21 escort teams within 10 years, and the number of destroyers and frigates will increase to 54. these changes will further enhance its combat capabilities and lay the foundation for the comprehensive upgrade of the japan maritime self-defense force.

this upgrade will not only target neighboring countries, but will also affect the world pattern.
