東京、ミサイル防衛の対応テストへ （シドニー・モーニング･ヘラルド）
東京発――北朝鮮や中国の脅威から国を守れることを証明するための防衛訓練（軍事演習じゃないの！？−千早）で、日本はパトリオット･ミサイルの発射台を東京の街中に配備する。
今から2,3週間、自衛官やPAC3、発射装置を搭載した部隊は東京の北にある航空自衛隊の入間基地を出発し、日本の首都圏内１０ヵ所に散っていく。これらはミサイル･システム実戦配備の準備にかかる時間とシステムの有効性に障害となる問題を調べるために使われる。
起こりうる問題には、個々の発射装置と軍本部とのコミュニケーションの保持が含まれる。「弾道ミサイル防衛体制の能力を改善させ、さらに発展させることが重要であると考えており、将来この演習を行なう所存です」と防衛省広報官の中野ケイ（漢字不明）は語った。

Tokyo to test missile defence response

TOKYO: Japan will deploy Patriot missile batteries on the streets of Tokyo in a security drill designed to prove that it is capable of defending itself from any threat posed by North Korea or China.
Convoys carrying troops and Patriot advanced capacity-3 missiles and launcher units will leave the Air Self-Defence Force's base at Iruma, north of Tokyo, in the next few weeks and disperse to 10 locations throughout the Japanese capital. They will be used to determine the speed at which the systems can be brought to operational readiness and any glitches that may hamper their effectiveness.
Potential problems include maintaining communications between the individual launch units and military headquarters. "We believe it is important to improve and further develop our ballistic missile defence system's capabilities and we intend to conduct this drill in the future," said Kei Nakano, a Defence Ministry spokesman.

Convoys carrying troops and Patriot advanced capacity-3 missiles and launcher units will leave the Air Self-Defence Force's base at Iruma, north of Tokyo, in the next few weeks and disperse to 10 locations throughout the Japanese capital.
They will be used to determine the speed at which the systems can be brought to operational readiness and any glitches that may hamper their effectiveness.
Potential problems include maintaining communications between the individual launch units and military headquarters. "We believe it is important to improve and further develop our ballistic missile defence system's capabilities and we intend to conduct this drill in the future," said Kei Nakano, a defence ministry spokesman.
The ministry has not announced the "scenario" for the drill, although Japan's concerns about its neighbours' military capabilities are well documented.
North Korea already has an arsenal of ballistic missiles that are capable of hitting targets in mainland Japan and is developing weapons that will be able to strike United States military facilities in Okinawa and further afield.
Despite international inspectors being granted access to Pyongyang's nuclear programme, there are many in Japan who are not convinced that the regime is revealing its full hand.
Military analysts believe North Korea is only a matter of years away from developing a weapon that is capable of delivering a nuclear payload.
Tokyo also has territorial issues with Russia, although there is little likelihood of any military escalation in that relationship. The same cannot be said for the third nuclear power on Japan's doorstep, China.
Though there have been efforts to court Beijing in the two months since Yasuo Fukuda took over as prime minister, Tokyo remains concerned at China's escalating military spending and its efforts to develop a large modern naval fleet.
Several other Japanese cities are considered potential targets and similar PAC-3 exercises are reportedly planned for Nagoya and Osaka.
