   > The Japanese Ministry of Defense on August 30 requested $59.1 billion for fiscal year 2025 starting in April, its largest ever defense budget request.

   > Requesting construction costs for three New FFMs in one year is very unusual because the MoD has so far secured the budget only for either two Mogami-class FFMs or two New FFMs every year.

   > The JMSDF is expected to take delivery of the first ASEV during fiscal year 2027, with the second one in the following fiscal year.
