      Their culture was still heavily-influenced by the old Samurai code. Failure was supposed to result in your death. Anything less than victory was dishonorable. And the schism between the IJA and the IJN was so extreme that the IJN sort of failed to tell the IJA that they had lost the 4 carriers at Midway. The IJA literally was creating battle plans based on the support of those carriers for almost a year before they found out they were lost. Under those circumstances, telling the truth about less than successful results just doesn't seem likely. What a terrible way to conduct a war.

      Part of the problem is that as the war went on and the quality of pilots declined, their ability to be situationally aware of their targets also decreased. Lesser trained recruits focus much more on the basic operation of their craft rather than trusting training and muscle memory so they can focus on the objectives.
      As a result, the untrained pilots tended to develop a sort of tunnel vision and became less aware of if they were actually completing their objectives, so they gave optimistic reports to their superiors to not lose face
      Compare it to strikes against midway where pilots reported they would need one more strike wave against midway to knock out the island defenses or pearl harbor where the pilots truthfully reported no carriers were hit

    It seems that number one lesson from the exaggerated casualty figures of the enemy and the personal cult of bravery and self-sacrifice is: You do not learn and teach others about the mistakes commited, that can be avoided in the future. So no wonder some officers in IJN & IJA did not want to accept Japan's surrender in 1945, how can you lose a war if you bravely won all the individual battles? Which brings me to the parallels between WWII and a war still going on today in Ukraine... I believe private Conscriptovich and Colonel Nepotisov are making similar reports to Moscow about their gains.

    @bubbasbigblast8563 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    Mounting a continual air attack in the region was probably impossible for the Japanese: even assuming they had enough supplies to do so, flying in the region was extremely stressful because of the weather conditions, so the pilots would continually become less effective with time.
    Such stress has very real effects: pilots suffering from stress during WW1 were noted to have not only become less capable, but the stress often led to pilots being unable to agree on what had even occurred in the air when making reports. The US addressed such issues by rotating pilots out when they could; the Japanese avoided doing so, which might help explain why the Japanese pilots made such wildly exaggerated reports, and why they had issues making use of their numbers.

    HMNZN Moa was a mine sweeper of just 600 tons. Not a Corvette. She, and her sister ship Kiwi, were responsible for the sinking of the Japanese submarine I 7. Quite a feat for such little boats that had hardly any firepower. 1 × 4-inch gun, 1 × QF 2-pounder naval gun, 1 × twin Lewis, 40-42 depth charges.

    One of the biggest problem with the Japanese air arm, aside from pilot training, was the loss of aircraft ground crews. So many of them were lost with the sinking of the carriers, and the training of ground crews so inefficient, that the planes were poorly maintained. Insufficiently trained pilots and ground crews was a recipe for disaster.

    • @n1k2jfan96

      There was another, lesser-known aspect of the insufficiently trained Japanese pilots post-1942 which could be described as hierarchical.
      Saburo Sakai, the legendary IJN flying ace who never lost a wingman in combat, sustained serious injuries while attacking a formation of Grumman TBF Avengers over Guadalcanal in August 1942. After his discharge from the hospital in January 1943, he spent a year in training new fighter pilots. To his dismay, he found the new generation of student pilots, who typically outranked veteran instructors, to be arrogant and unskilled.

    The U.S. trained 70'000 pilots in WW2.
    Japan trained 10% of that ..
    Early in the war , experienced Japanese pilots out fought American pilots .
    But , as American pilots were trained on better & better equipment , the balance turned in America's favor ...
    The U.S. never stopped training pilots throughout the war , where as Japan waited far too late to train new pilots ...
    Its also well worth mentioning , Japan never upgraded their fighters even when it was obvious the Zero was obsolete .
    One upgrade of engine power helped some , but Japan sacrificed trained pilots for a lighter more agile plane...
    One round into the wing tanks & they became an inferno .
    Unlike the U.S. fighters which were heavy with armor around the pilot and self sealing fuel tanks ..
    They could survive a horrible beating & return the pilot safely .

    Japnese mistakes were as follows:
    There pilot training system was very weak
    Thier army was very very weak
    The Betty bomber has very less Armor and as a result pilot loses rised drastically
    Their fighters were very outdated
    They have wasted enormous resources in battleships which were useless in ww2
    A very important issue was lack of radar
    You all may have not noticed that the primary reason for defeat in naval battle of guadacanal midway battle
    Battle of Cape esperance and in many other battles their reason for defeat was lack of radar

    I-GO (ego) is an ironic pun for me. Yamamoto surveying frontlines, exaggerated number, boosted morale under false pretense, and unwilling to accept the flaws. As we have seen again and again, misinformation often lead to missed opportunity and bad engagement.

    The Japanese command never figured to not trust aviators reports of success. On all sides, even today, the success is always exaggerated. Always as a minimum divide be 2. American, British, German and Japanese pilot reports were exaggerated by the same proportions. Other than the Japanese this was understood by command.
