When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and other Western positions in the
Asia-Pacific World in December 1941, it was unprepared to go to war
with the United States and the Western Democracies generally and
even realized it could not win. Its navy and air force were
impressive, and its army could battle impressively against China,
but Japanese small arms were terrible. Japan's tanks could not
compete with their opposite numbers. The Empire's logistical base
was undeveloped for modern warfare. While the Allies could produce
large numbers of trained many pilots, Japan produced very few. When
its elite airmen were lost at the Battle of Midway in June 1942,
Japan could not replace them. At sea, Japan built battleships when
it needed more aircraft carriers. The Japanese military never even
attempted to win World War II by a simple and direct plan. Its
planners consistently assumed that the enemy would do precisely
what they assumed and countenanced no alternative analyses of
facts.
