IS Japan's defence spending just a complete waste of money?
Let's be honest, if USA is not capable of defending against China's DF41, what chance Japan has?
China's most advanced Mach 25 (31,425 km/h; 19,625 mph; 8,660 m/s) DF-41 ICBM has a range of up to 12,000–15,000km (7,460-9,320 miles) and is capable of carrying ten conventional or twelve MIRV (multiple independently targetable re-entry vehicles) warheads with 8 x 250 kt or 10 x 150 kt MIRVs of payloads.
When fired fiom chosen launching locations (Silo, road-mobile Transporter erector launcher, rail-mobile) these missiles can reach and destroy most major cities in USA, in less than 20 minutes, with 150meters target accuracy.
Df 41 can hit Tokyo in less than 7 minutes, one DF 41 can comletely destroy all Japan major cities and targets in one go.
Advice to Japan: stop wasting your tax payer money on military build up; better spend them for the benefit of your citizens.

In their letter to Starmer, the signatories called on him to make any trade deal or economic concession offered to Beijing during a planned visit in January 2026 contingent on the release of Lai. The letter said the U.K. government must be prepared to demonstrate it will not “sacrifice the freedom of its citizens in order to receive vague assurances and promises of trade and investment in return.”
As far as China is concern, there is no planned visit.
How does China view this (self impotant) potential gatecrasher?
