Japan secures 400 Tomahawk missiles in deal with US
The Business Guardian
|January 20, 2024
Japan on Thursday signed a deal with the United States to purchase 400 land-based Tomahawk cruise missiles, seeking to acquire the capability of striking an adversary's territory with China and North Korea in mind, Japan-based Kyodo News reported.
-
As per the deal arranged through the US foreign military sales programme, Japan will pay about USD 1.7 billion to buy up to 400 Tomahawks and related equipment. Japan will make
the payments over three years from fiscal 2025 starting in April next year, Kyodo News reported citing the Japanese Defence Ministry.
Initially, Japan was planning to obtain the latest Tomahawk Block-5 missiles in fiscal 2026 and 2027 and deploying them on its Maritime Self-Defense Force Aegis destroyers. However, Japan in October, decided to begin the purchase a year earlier by procuring up to 200 of the previous version, the older Block-4 model.
