Japan's space program is hugely capable, they've provided one of the most important parts of the ISS, were the first to return samples from an asteroid, recently they've landed on the moon and debuted the new H-3 rocket.
But their biggest launch vehicle is a direct descendent of the American Thor/Delta rocket and while Delta is soon to be retired, Japan's H-3 has a long history ahead of it.
