Japan has achieved a historic milestone in its military modernization efforts with the transformation of the warship Kaga into the nation's first full aircraft carrier since World War II. Previously serving as a helicopter carrier, the upgraded Kaga now boasts the capability to deploy the advanced F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter, marking a significant enhancement in Japan's defense capabilities amidst escalating regional tensions. The unveiling ceremony took place at the Kure naval base in Hiroshima, symbolizing Japan's commitment to bolstering its maritime strength. According to a South China Morning Post report, the Kaga, originally launched in 2015 as part of the Izumo class, underwent extensive refitting at a cost of 115 billion yen (US$758 million) to accommodate Lockheed Martin F-35B fighters. This transformation signifies a departure from its previous role of carrying helicopters, with upgrades including a redesigned bow section and a new heat-resistant deck coating to withstand the F-35B's engine heat during vertical take-offs and landings. Robert Dujarric, co-director of the Institute of Contemporary Asian Studies at Temple University's Tokyo campus, emphasized that while the Kaga alone may not dramatically alter Japan's military dynamics, the advanced aircraft it carries significantly bolster its operational capabilities. "The broader advantage it will provide is the greater ability to operate and interact with US and other forces in the region, giving Japan some of the same toys as the big boys," Dujarric noted. However, the operational concept of deploying the Kaga as an aircraft carrier remains under discussion, with logistical nuances to be addressed, including the fact that the F-35Bs, operated by the Air Self-Defense Force, will not be permanently stationed on the Kaga. Ryo Hinata-Yamaguchi, an assistant professor of international relations at the University of Tokyo, highlighted the strategic uncertainties surrounding the carrier's use, whether for controlling sea areas or supporting amphibious units. Despite its advanced capabilities, analysts express skepticism about the Kaga's potential to significantly impact the regional power balance, particularly in light of China's expanding aircraft carrier fleet. Hinata-Yamaguchi suggested that while the refitted carrier might pose a deterrent to potential territorial ambitions, it is unlikely to be perceived as a substantial threat by China. Nevertheless, the introduction of the Kaga, alongside its sister ship Izumo, into active service underscores Japan's commitment to strengthening its maritime defense and enhancing interoperability with allies.

The Indian Defence Research and Development Organisation’s (DRDO) Advanced Defence Establishment (ADE) continues to advance the Nirbhay (Fearless) missile program, expanding its capabilities beyond the successful land-based Long Range Land Attack Cruise Missile (LRLACM) variant and its precursor, the Indigenous Technology Cruise Missile (ITCM). The latest developments include a naval variant of the Nirbhay cruise missile, with testing for the anti-ship version anticipated within the next 12 to 18 months. ADE intends to achieve 100% indigenisation with the missile and its variants which will inherit these proven technologies. This schedule hinges on the successful integration of Universal Vertical Launch Module (UVLM) cells into a designated warship. The UVLM, fully designed and developed by BrahMos Aerospace and L&T, is presently installed in a plethora of frontline warships of the Indian Navy. The UVLM allows surface combatants to have a greater number of weapons ready for firing at any given time compared to older launching systems Nirbhay, India’s long-range, all-weather, subsonic cruise missile, is powered initially by a solid rocket booster developed by the Advanced Systems Laboratory (ASL). After achieving the necessary velocity and altitude, the missile’s propulsion switches to a turbofan engine. The missile’s guidance system is a sophisticated combination of inertial navigation developed by the Research Centre Imarat (RCI), a radio altimeter, a ring laser gyroscope-based system, and a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) based inertial navigation system (INS) integrated with GPS/NavIC. With a length of 6 meters, a wingspan of 2.7 meters, and a weight of approximately 1,500 kg, Nirbhay can deliver a variety of warheads between 200 and 300 kg over a range of about 1,500 km. It boasts sea-skimming and loitering capabilities, enabling it to execute complex maneuvers around targets before re-engaging. The missile can fly at altitudes ranging from 50 meters to 4 km, making it adept at evading radar detection by flying low to the ground. #military #defense #defence #militaryleak https://lnkd.in/gTg6A-b9

Bharat Shakti, a tri-services exercise, showcased the Armed Forces’ indigenous defence capabilities and the Atmanirbharata initiative. The event emphasised integration and jointness in communications, training, interoperability, and logistics. It also displayed an array of indigenous weapon systems and platforms aligned with indigenisation, demonstrating the growing prowess of rising India. The live fire and static display have given our adversaries a strategic message about the combat potential of Indian Armed Forces in terms of both, capability and capacity. Additionally, Bharat Shakti signalled to the world military community to subscribe to India’s formidable defence manufacturing potential. The synergised demonstration is a testimony to the armed forces’ commitment to modernisation through indigenisation. In this live fire demonstration, held in Pokhran on 12 March 2024, the Indian Army displayed visible efforts as the lead service. They began with careful planning to maximise the use of resources in Pokaran for integrated firing, akin to actual battle space management. The demonstration showed synergy in ISR, firepower, and communications throughout the operation. Coordinating airspace management with the IAF is crucial in battles where both Army and Air Force assets utilise the airspace concurrently. It necessitates clearly defined boundaries, identification drills, and reliable communication systems. Coordinating live fire and manoeuvre drills among different arms and services is vital in large-scale exercises. These activities provide firsthand experience in handling similar situations in real battles. Efforts were underway, with extensive planning to integrate and foster jointness among the services. Bharat Shakti embodied in these endeavours. This showcases the Army’s contributions to realising the long-awaited integration. While the firing was impressive, the Static Display of various equipment and weapons provided a comprehensive view of the Armed Forces’ indigenous platforms. Exhibited items encompassed multiple drones, counter-drone systems, and simulators, communication systems like software-defined radios (SDR), radars, LCH Prachand, ALH, Akash Missile System, jammers, and electronic warfare systems from all three services.
