Mitsubishi developed the F-2 fighter jet, also known as the “Viper Zero”, as a licensed production of the General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon. The F-2 has a larger wing area and is equipped with an Active Electronically Scanned Array radar, making it suitable for air-to-air and air-to-ground combat. Japan uses the F-2 primarily for air-to-ground capabilities to defend its sea lanes. The plane’s design team improved on the F-16 by using graphite epoxy and composites for the wings, decreasing the jet’s weight while improving its strength.
The F-2’s performance is theoretical when compared to other countries’ fighter jets, such as North Korea’s MiG-29 Fulcrum and China’s J-20 “Mighty Dragon”. Japan is currently working on developing its own fifth-generation fighter jet, in partnership with the UK and Italy, and has already adopted the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II. The F-2 will likely remain in service for at least the next decade until a homegrown replacement is developed. Critics have stated that the F-2 has been too expensive and that its improvements over the F-16 have not been cost-effective.

The Philippine Football Federation Director of National Teams, Freddy Gonzalez, has assured fans that the team is actively preparing for the 2024 Mitsubishi Electric Cup. Gonzalez emphasized that the team is currently focused on friendlies against Hong Kong and Sri Lanka, but is working hard behind the scenes to prepare for the tournament. He noted that the team is evolving in its playing style under Coach Albert Capellas and that immediate results might not be realistic. Instead, the focus is on trusting the process and taking each match as it comes. Gonzalez highlighted the importance of players like Gerrit Holtmann, who recently rejoined the squad, but acknowledged the challenges of securing them for tournaments outside the FIFA calendar. The team will travel to Hong Kong on November 14 and host Sri Lanka on November 19, and Gonzalez is confident that they have a solid chance of reaching the semifinals and possibly the finals if they can manage to get their key players on board.

Mitsubishi Estate, a Japanese real estate company, released its earnings report for the second quarter of 2025, which missed market expectations. The company’s net income for the quarter decreased by 15.7% year-over-year to ¥43.8 billion (approximately $400 million USD), falling short of the estimated ¥53.4 billion (approximately $490 million USD).
Revenues also declined by 12.2% year-over-year to ¥154.6 billion (approximately $1.4 billion USD), below the forecasted ¥171.5 billion (approximately $1.6 billion USD). The company attributed the disappointing results to weaker-than-expected performance in its investment and development business, which was impacted by a slower-than-expected recovery in the Japanese property market.
Mitsubishi Estate also reported a decline in its operating profit, which decreased by 18.6% year-over-year to ¥64.5 billion (approximately $590 million USD). The company maintained its full-year forecast, but reduced its dividend payment for the current fiscal year due to the weaker-than-expected results. Despite the miss, Mitsubishi Estate’s stock price has largely stabilized, suggesting that the market has already priced in the disappointing earnings.

Mitsubishi revealed a new seven-seat SUV concept called the DST, which is not the long-awaited Pajero Sport. The DST is a mid-size SUV with a monocoque platform and front-wheel drive, not the off-road capable 4WD many were expecting. However, the Pajero Sport is still in development and expected to be unveiled in late 2025 or early 2026. It’s likely to be powered by a 2.4-liter four-cylinder twin-turbo diesel engine or a plug-in hybrid powertrain. The Pajero Sport is expected to undergo testing and validation for the Australian market, focusing on towing, straight-line ability, and on-center handling. While the DST’s design is boxy and rugged, the Pajero Sport’s design is expected to be even more so, with Mitsubishi’s recent design direction in mind.

NextGen CDR, a joint venture between South Pole and Mitsubishi Corporation, has announced that it will purchase carbon dioxide removal (CDR) credits from Alt Carbon, a leading CDR developer in India. This deal will scale up Asia’s CDR market and marks the first purchase by NextGen outside of Europe and the US. The purchase will provide a long-term supply of certified CDRs at an average price of $200/tonne, making it a market first. Alt Carbon’s enhanced rock weathering method involves spreading basalt on tea plantations in the Himalayan foothills, where the humid climate speeds up the process of removing CO2 from the atmosphere and storing it in the soil for over 10,000 years. The deal also supports farmers in the heritage tea industry, which is threatened by climate change. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change estimates that 10 billion tonnes of CO2 need to be removed from the atmosphere each year to avoid the worst effects of climate change, and enhanced rock weathering has the potential to remove 4 billion tonnes annually. The partnership between NextGen and Alt Carbon aims to support the growth of the CDR market and meet this significant challenge.
