Notes: The total defense budgets for FY2002 and FY2004 were not disclosed, and only the growth rates and the
amount of increase for the two fiscal years were disclosed. Though we tried to calculate the total defense
budgets for the two fiscal years based on the growth rates and the amount of increase in combination with
the initial defense budgets of the previous years, we found the numbers we got as a result of the calculation
to be inconsistent with the numbers China disclosed the following year. Therefore, this graph uses 168.4
billion yuan and 210 billion yuan for FY2002 and FY2004, respectively. These are calculated on the
assumption that the disclosed growth rates and the amount of increase are based on the actual defense
expenditures for FY2001 and FY2003.

Advancements to the Pacific Ocean by Chinese naval vessels have been confirmed every year since 2008. Their main characterist ics are as follows (the following numbers
correspond to those in the figure above):
①A state-of-the-art Luzhou-class destroyer was confirmed for the first time.
②A ship-based helicopter flight was confirmed in waters approximately 260km northeast of Okinotori Island.
③It is reported that, after the naval unit advanced into the Pacific Ocean, it passed through the Bashi Channel into the South China Sea, sailed around the Spratly islands, and
conducted a military exercise in waters near the Paracel Islands.
④A part of the naval unit conducted an exercise in waters in the middle of the East China Sea before advancing into the Pacific Ocean. At that time, a ship-based helicopter flew
close to Japan’s destroyer Suzunami, which was conducting surveillance activities. At its closest, the helicopter was about 90m away horizontally and about 30m above the ship.
Because this was very dangerous from the perspective of the safe navigation of the ship, Japan approached the Chinese Governm ent through a diplomatic channel with a request
to ascertain the facts of the matter. Subsequently, a ship-based helicopter approached and flew around Japan’s destroyer Asayuki, which was conducting surveillance with regard
to these vessels in the Pacific Ocean. At its closest, the helicopter was about 90m away horizontally and about 50m above the ship. Because this kind of incident occurred again,
which was dangerous from the perspective of the safe navigation of the ship, Japan filed a protest against the Chinese Government through a diplomatic channel.
⑤A reconnaissance ship was confirmed to be accompanying a naval unit for the first time. As well as conducting a targeting exerc ise in waters approximately 450km southwest of
Okinotori Island, the naval unit conducted drills involving unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and ship-based helicopter flights. Drills involving UAV takeoff from and landing on a frigate,
helicopter takeoff from and landing on a vessel, and night training at sea were confirmed for the first time.
⑥Five naval vessels in the naval unit conducted drills involving ship-based helicopter flights and mid-ocean refueling in waters approximately 900km southwest of Okinotori Island.
⑦The naval unit conducted drills involving ship-based helicopter flights and mid-ocean refueling in waters approximately 900km southwest of Okinotori Island.
⑧Chinese naval vessels had been confirmed to have passed through the Osumi Strait for the first time since a Ming-class submarine sailed west through the strait in November
2003. These vessels conducted UAV flight drills in waters approximately 700km east of Okinotori Island.
⑨A Luyang-I-class destroyer and a Yuzhao-class landing ship were confirmed for the first time. The naval unit conducted drills involving ship-based helicopter flights and formation
movements in waters southwest of the main island of Okinawa.
⑩The naval unit conducted drills involving ship-based helicopter flights in waters approximately 900km north of Okinotori Island and mid-ocean refueling in waters approximately
600km southwest of Okinotorishima.
⑪A fleet was confirmed navigating northward the sea area between the Yonakuni Island and the Nakanougan Island. The fleet passed the geographic median line at
approximately 80km southeast of Uotsuri Island.
⑫The fleet conducted ship-based helicopter flight training and mid-ocean refueling in waters approximately 550km southwest of Okinotori Island.
⑬Japan filed a protest against the Chinese Government through a diplomatic channel, in which Japan stated that directing such a radar is a dangerous act that could create a
contingency situation, expressed regret, and pressed Beijing to prevent the recurrence of such an act.
