This book aims to examine defense industrialization in several leading arms-producing states in Asia – China, India, Japan and South Korea – in order to decipher if autarky or self-sufficiency in armaments production, remains to be an adequate strategy for the task of developing and manufacturing next-generation weapon systems.

Bitzinger examines the phenomenon of attempted self-reliance in arms production within Asia, and assesses the extent of success in balancing this independence with the growing requirements of next-generation weapons systems. He analyzes China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia.

The overarching question in the book is whether self-reliance is a strategically viable solution for development and manufacturing of arms. Given the ever-changing dynamics and increasing demand for sophisticated next-generation weaponry, will these countries be able to individually sustain their domestic defense industries and constantly update their technologies?

This is the first book to analyze arms production from a regional perspective.
