Dual-Use Technology: Can It Save Japan’s Defense
Industry Base
Yuzo MurayamaStimson Center/Doshisha
UniversityOctober 10, 2013
Primary Research Field: Economic Security 1) Export Controls 2) National Security Restrictions on Foreign Direct
Investment 3) Defense Production and Technology Base
Second Research Field: Cultural Economics and Business 1) Revitalize Kyoto’s heritage industries 2) Seek sources of Japanese competitiveness from cultural aspects
Yuzo Murayama
At Stimson Center• Focus on constructing a business model and system
utilizing DUT1. Japan’s defense production and technology base2. International cooperation on defense production
and technology
• Increasing interests in Japanese policy circle on critical situation of the defense industry
• Need input from the U.S. to construct workable systems
Japan’s Defense Industry Base:Declining Market
• Decreasing defense budgets (since 2002: 5% decrease with slight increase in 2013)
• Acquisition of defense equipment 1989: 1,020 bill yen, 2013: 627 bill yen (39% decrease)
• Increasing trend in service and maintenance fee 2013: 868 bill yen
Japan’s Defense Industry Base:Industrial Organization
• U.S. and Europe: Reorganization started in the mid-1990s, several world-class companies emerged
• Japan: only two cases 1) Nissan’s aerospace division → IHI 2) Universal Shipbuilding + IHI → Japan Marine
United
• Declining market, but number of system integrators stay the same
Why? Implications?
Japan’s Defense Industry Base:Politics and Media
• Three Principles on Arms Export Original version – 1967, Export ban – 1976 Relaxations by making exceptions
o 1983: technology transfer to the U.S.o 2004: BMDo 2011: international joint R&D and peace buildingo 2013: F35
• Rising awareness of needs to relax it further among policy makers vs. traditional opposition from media
Brief History of DUT in Japan:A Negative Start
• 1980s – encountered DUT in the U.S., ex. Fujitsu-Fairchild
• Gulf War (1991) – Japanese components in U.S. weapons
• Company response: try to deny dual-use aspect of technologies
• Government response: concerned about consistency with the export ban policy
Brief History of DUT in Japan:Post-9/11
• 9/11 – focus on counter terrorism & such internal problems as earthquake, infectious diseases, rising crimes etc.
• New thinking: utilize Japan’s technology to solve these problems facing Japan and international community – science and technology for Anzen-Anshin
• (Publication of my book on economic security?)• Study groups were formed in 2003 in MEXT and CSTP• Positive recognition of DUT (for Anzen-Anshin)• CSTP document (2006) – DUT for R&D in defense, police
and fire fighting
DUT Programs at MOD• Started around 2002 in cooperation with NEDO Millimeter-wave device, Quantum Dot Infrared Photodetector,
etc.
• Good example: Non-cooling infrared sensor In cooperation with The National Institute of Advanced
Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) *High-end sensors (night vision devise, unmanned aircraft, etc.) for military use *Low-end sensors (surveillance security, automobile, etc.) for commercial market
DUT Programs at MOD• SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) To spin on technologies developed by NEDO’s SBIR project
to defense sector ex) Motor for small robot system, toxic substance detection
• Inter-ministry cooperation for technology development by CSTP
Mainly technology development for counter-terrorism ex) Laser technology for remote detection
Integrated Defense DUT Base• Two steams of DUT development 1) Anzen-Anshin stream by MEXT, METI, CSTP 2)Defense stream by MOD
• Integration of these two streams provide interesting opportunity Anzen-Anshin-Defense Technology Base *Technology base for defensive technologies:
could acquire niche in the world market * Use of Japan’s competitive commercial technologies *Feedback between public and private sectors for raising
technology levels

Thoughts1) Need system to insert commercial technologies (especially
SME) to defense sector2) Defensive vs. Offensive: Do not make sense in materials and
component levels? (Especially in case of international R&D)3) How to globalize the defense DUT base?4) Need changes in the three principles? (How to implement?)5) Implications for industrial organization and acquisition
reform?
