well, japan is nothing but a puppet state of the US and doesn't have much of an independent foreign policy. Sort of like the UK.

May God Bless China!

^^^True^^^

The US does not allow japan to be soo powerful. Japan has many indigenous designs, why design a completely new plane when a good model is going to be given to you?

Im guessing they are allies now since they are trading arms, how is the UK and Japan a puppet 'state' of the US

Who would control UK and Japan if US was not so powerful
