Japan approves sharp defense budget increase
Tokyo.Pixel: The Japanese Cabinet approved a 7.754 percent rise in the 1982 defense budget to 11.75 billion dollars, amid a clash with the Finance Ministry. Officials anticipate the budget exceeding 1 percent of GNP and seek a 10 percent rise for 1983, with aims to deploy P-3C planes, F-15 fighters, destroyers, and anti-tank helicopters. Prime Minister Zenko Suzuki backs the plan, aligning with U.S. pressure for a larger Japanese defense role.
