The Japan MOD requires public-private personnel exchange programmes to transfer best practices and innovative approaches, leveraging external expertise to enhance internal capabilities.

Partnerships with educational institutions are essential to develop future defence engineers and technologists, particularly through cyber education programmes that improve digital literacy and advanced cybersecurity skills among SDF personnel.

The Japan MOD needs participation in multinational exercises like "Keen Sword" and "Keen Edge" with the US to enhance interoperability and joint operational capabilities.

Additionally, providing operational expertise and advisory services is essential for refining Japan's defence strategies and operational doctrines.

The Japan MOD needs advanced cybersecurity solutions, including real-time threat monitoring and response services. 

Collaboration on information-sharing initiatives is crucial to enhance threat intelligence and situational awareness, as demonstrated by strengthening international partnerships through cyber dialogues and training exercises.

The Japan MOD seeks collaboration on R&D initiatives for advanced defence technologies like hypersonic weapons, high-energy lasers, and unmanned systems, crucial for maintaining technological superiority.

Supporting Japan's efforts to enhance its technological base through joint research projects and funding is vital, exemplified by investments in early deployment of upgraded Type-12 surface-to-ship missiles and Hyper Velocity Gliding Projectiles (HVGP).
