　政府が年末に改定する国家安全保障戦略など安保３文書の骨子案が９日、明らかになった。敵の射程圏外から攻撃できるスタンド・オフ防衛能力に５兆円を計上するとした上で、米国製巡航ミサイル「トマホーク」を念頭に、「外国製スタンド・オフ・ミサイルの着実な導入」も明記した。
　５兆円は２０２３年度から５年間の経費。また、スタンド・オフ・ミサイルについては「地上発射型・潜水艦発射型を含め、ミサイルの運用可能な能力を強化」するとした。（2022/12/09-21:33）

The Japanese government plans to spend 5 trillion yen to develop standoff defense capabilities in the five years from fiscal 2023, according to draft outlines revealed Friday for its three key security-related documents to be revised this month.
   With the U.S.-made Tomahawk cruise missile in mind, the draft outlines also include a plan to "steadily introduce foreign-made standoff missiles."
   Regarding standoff missiles, the government will "strengthen the operational capabilities for both land-based and submarine-launched missiles," according to the draft outlines.
   On cybersecurity, the government will create a "structure enabling constant risk management mainly for key systems" while introducing an "active cyber defense" framework.
   The draft outlines also feature Japan's plan to acquire counterstrike capabilities, defining them as "the capabilities of the Self-Defense Forces that allow our country to mount an effective counterattack on an enemy domain, through the use of standoff defense capabilities and others."
