Remember, Japan (and Germany) lost WWII. As a consequence of WWII, Japan (and Germany to a certain extent) have not been allowed to possess an Army, Navy, nor Air Force & Japan is not allowed to fight wars anymore. The US imposed this law on Japan during the US occupation immediately following the war (Germany received some restrictions also).

Japan does possess military forces but they are for self defense only. Thusly, they are called the Japanese Self Defense Forces. Japan has sent SUPPORT units from their self defense forces over-seas for peacekeeping purposes: but they leave their tanks, jets, and artillery at home.
