Govt seeks cluster bomb alternative
The Yomiuri Shimbun
The Defense Ministry has decided to start procuring new weapons, including new types of cluster bombs, from next fiscal year to replace its stockpile of cluster bombs, whose production and use will be banned after a treaty outlawing such munitions takes effect, sources said Saturday.
Last month, the government endorsed a draft treaty banning cluster munitions that was adopted at an international conference in Dublin attended by representatives of more than 100 nations.
Its decision prompted the ministry to find alternative weapons to cluster bombs, which were regarded as effective in defending this nation due to its long coastline.
Cluster munitions, which contain several to hundreds of bomblets, can be used to bombard wide areas. But they pose lingering risks to civilians.
Many people have been killed or maimed by unexploded ordinance after the end of armed conflicts.
New types of cluster bombs, however, will not be subject to the ban as they have fewer than 10 bomblets, which are equipped with self-destruct mechanisms, sharply reducing the risk of bomblets failing to explode.
The ministry is in the process of formulating a deployment plan that combines five to six measures to replace the cluster bombs in the possession of the Self-Defense Forces.
The ministry plans to include the required costs in its fiscal 2009 budgetary requests to be made this summer.
