The constitution of Japan prohibits the formation of armed forces.

The soldiers are called “self-defense officers”. According to an increasingly generous interpretation of the constitution, since 1981 Japanese troops can also be deployed outside their own air and sea borders for national defense.
The total strength of the “Self Defense Forces” (SDF) recruited from volunteers is around 247,000 men. In terms of paramilitary forces, Japan has 13,700 coastguards.
