The strategic competition between the United States and China is increasingly being decided as much by industrial capacity as by military power  and Japan is emerging as the focal point of allied efforts to build the manufacturing base needed to sustain deterrence in the Indo-Pacific. 
The signs have accumulated rapidly. 
Over the span of just a few weeks, a European aerospace giant has announced plans to codevelop long-endurance military drones with Japanese industry. 
Ukrainian companies have begun bringing battlefield-proven unmanned technologies to potential partners in Tokyo. 
And American defense-tech company Anduril Industries has signaled its intention to establish production in the country, while the Defense Ministry in Tokyo reportedly weighs adopting a U.S. military artificial intelligence system for the Self-Defense Forces’ (SDF) command-and-control operations.
