Does Japan own a armada?
Answers: Japan has a Maritime Self Defense Force and a Coast Guard.
海上自衛隊 ＭＳＤＦ
海上保安庁 Japan Coast Guard
What differs the Current MSDF from a Naval Sea Force is the decrease of ships and mission as detailed by the consitution of Japan. Japan's postwar constitution, adopted below Allied supervision, included a "Peace Clause" (Article 9), which renounced war and not permitted Japan from maintaining any armed forces. This be intended to prevent the country from ever becoming an aggressive military power again.
Thus the types of ships that the MSDF maintains and operate do not include an aircraft carrirer.
yes, almost all countries near shorelines do
Every country has a flotilla. Japan's navy is relatively questionable and useless compared to many other countries. To vote that Japan can win a war if it be to wage one now would be deathlike. Those that think Japan is militarily powerful still live within the 1930s.
Yeah, and they had the strongest Navy surrounded by World War 2 for awhile...until we Americans started kicking butt.
