About JCASPSS
In August 2014,in the form of placing experts in building air defense capabilities and Air and Space operations, A new "Center for Air and Space Power Strategic Studies(CASPSS)"was established at the ACSC. Our research is conducted in collaboration with the Air Staff Office and units.The CASPSS conducts research across departments in it as research projects,and each study is managed by a project manager to ensure that solutions are provided at the appropriate time.
Research Focus of the CASPSS
The CASPSS conducts "cyclical research work,"in which it promotes research based on the lessons learned from the construction of air and space defense capabilities and JSDF operations, as well as strategic situation analysis, and utilizes the results to improve future air and space defense capabilities and JSDF operations. In this context, Our research is conducted with emphasis on the following matters.
Research is conducted with the cooperation of visiting researchers and researchers in universities and research institutes.
▷ Research on systematization of theories of strategy and operatiions,etc,
▷ Research on the defense strategy as the basis for is air defense capability buildings and JADF operations
