Even 6 months would be bloody, every day with the Japanese occupation would be bloody, iirc the POWs on the Japanese mainland were slated to be executed Palawan style a little bit after the atom bombs were dropped. And no, it would definitely delay well over a year. Imagine with Japan with four extra fleet carriers going in, their bigger ones. There would be no Guadalcanal. Even with your Essex class carriers, do recall the Essex herself really only got to the Pacific in May 1943. By then, the Enterprise had been the only US functioning carrier in the Pacific for nearly a year after the Hornet was lost at Santa Cruz.

Not at all. Okinawa/Iwo Jima were exceptions to the rule of the island hopping campaigns.

One way or another the Japanese merchant marine fleet was going to be at the bottom of the pacific and the Japanese weren't adding tonnage anywhere near replacement levels. They never developed a proper ASW doctrine and you could argue that it was the only successful submarine campaign in history because the nation it was waged against didn't believe destroyers should be used to escort supply ships.

The Japanese were a sad joke in WW2 that got lucky and bit off more than they could chew in the first 6 months of the war.

Rabaul was the most fortified position in Japan's defensive island line and it was completely bypassed and starved out by the end of the war.

"In other words, even if it had lost catastrophically at the Battle of Midway, the United States Navy still would have broken even with Japan in carriers and naval air power by about September 1943. Nine months later, by the middle of 1944, the U.S. Navy would have enjoyed a nearly two-to-one superiority in carrier aircraft capacity! Not only that, but with her newer, better aircraft designs, the U.S. Navy would have enjoyed not only a substantial numeric, but also a critical qualitative advantage as well, starting in late 1943. All this is not to say that losing the Battle of Midway would not have been a serious blow to American fortunes! For instance, the war would almost certainly have been protracted if the U.S. had been unable to mount some sort of a credible counter-stroke in the Solomons during the latter half of 1942. Without carrier-based air power of some sort there would not have been much hope of doing so, meaning that we would most likely have lost the Solomons. However, the long-term implications are clear: the United States could afford to make good losses that the Japanese simply could not. Furthermore, this comparison does not reflect the fact that the United States actually slowed down its carrier building program in late 1944, as it became increasingly evident that there was less need for them. Had the U.S. lost at Midway, it seems likely that those additional carriers (3 Midway-class and 6 more Essex-Class CVs, plus the Saipan-class CVLs) would have been brought on line more quickly. In a macro-economic sense, then, the Battle of Midway was really a non-event. There was no need for the U.S. to seek a single, decisive battle which would 'Doom Japan' -- Japan was doomed by its very decision to make war."

The biggest problem the Japs had was oil supply. The Japs were always short of bunker fuels, gasoline and tel aviation gas, and the U.S. never was. When a naval organization like the U.S. 5th. Fleet was at sea it consumed millions of gallons of ship fuel per month. Carrier planes of the time needed tel av gas to function properly and none of the combat planes were fuel efficient.

The other Jap problem was that their submarine strategy, tactics, and boats were substandard. The U.S. was first class in all categories except maybe torpedoes. The Japs anti-submarine tactics were also substandard. Har! I made a pun.

Like I said the times after Midway were still rough for the United States. Yes defeat was inevitable for Japan. But victory in America comes in all kinds of colors. If you read anything I wrote (Japan lost 4 fleet carriers but America was down to 1), Guadalcanal (way before your September 1943) wouldn't have happened. The war would have definitely dragged on at least a year. With Japan not staggering by the time the USN achieved parity, they wouldn't have collapsed as quickly. Imagine Iwo Jima or Peleliu or another bloody island with several more months to prepare, and that all stacking up. It didn't matter how many carriers the US would've had, it mattered in how many they had then.

Allied victory was guaranteed. There was simply no way any nation at the time could stop the combined might, resources, etc. of US+UK+Russia.

No, Russian and French torpedoes were worse. U.S. torps were on a par with Germany and England, which is to say second class. Japs did lead the way most of the war. Better designs better executed. Also very well trained in mechanics, strategies, and tactics, especially in their surface fleet. Japanese subs were a waste of resources however.
>>
>>85047954
Okay, so the American fleet loses Midway and goes back to their country to wait for more carriers. The Japanese conquer the American held islands. Where do the American subs go to rearm and resupply? Oh wait, they leave too because they have nowhere to go. Nevermind that those statistics include actually functional British and Dutch submarines.

while you are correct that the American Mk 14s and even Mk 18s were shit tier (rip USS Tang), >>85047651 is correct in that the US submarines would have wreaked havoc, as they did in real life. American submarines were responsible for more than half of Japan's merchant marine force, and effectively strangled the island nation.

>>85048134
Their potential use by their surface fleet was a serious complicating feature in any battle, especially at night. They had the longest range torpedoes of the war, and all Allied ship captains had a healthy respect for their ability to use them. Their torpedoes could be set for variable speed and range, and floated when they ran out of power. This made them a sort of mine. This had to be factored in when manuevering during a fight. The Japanese very very liberal in their use of torps in a fight.

I think you underestimate the support US gave to both UK and USSR. If it wasn't for US sending trucks and tanks to the USSR they would have had no means of transportation since germany destroyed most of their rail roads and whiped out 75% of the soviet air force in the first few weeks of Barbarossa. If US didnt get involved in any shape or form and stayed 100% neutral Germany would have won beaten russia even if barely

Imo, (coming from an American) the US was more useful as a neutral supplier to the UK in WW2 than it was after it joined in 1942.

The UK had thousands of planes ordered from the US and never got them until years later in the war because the US had to use them. The biggest losses in the Atlantic theater were when America officially joined the war and safe zones for convoys were no longer there.

Think about what Britain did for 500 years in continental wars, they gave the boots, guns, ammunition to armies and it was more useful than actually putting boots on the ground. in 1914-1941 America was now in the role of the British as the great world creditor and supplier. British victory over Germany was inevitable just as much as America's was over Japan.

You build Railroads east and south (remember, we are talking hypothetically about a war just between Germany and England, the rest of the world is neutral). What good is a battleship against the Orient Express?

The best way to eliminate the worlds navies (they are a colossal waste of resources and lead weak-minded politicians into quagmires) is to build high speed railroads. The biggest two problems are the Bering Straights and japan. Europe and Africa can be linked now at Suez and probably at Gibraltar if the will was there. North and South America would be easy. Once the rail technology links Asia to Japan and North America we can start scrapping cargo and naval ships.

I think it was more Hitler and Goehring's retarded pride that made the UK a wall. If they'd kept pressure on the RAF instead of switching to London, they'd most likely have broken their air defenses and opened them up to invasion. Would've been interesting to see what Germany could do in an amphibious landing with the Royal Navy still dominant. They could've pulled it off IF the RAF was totally fucked. Having to invade Europe without the island as a base of operations would've been a doozy too.

Practically every ship in WWII had 20mm Swedish Bofors guns and 40mm Swiss Oerlikons. The ammunition for each was made under license with a royalty. Every time the Japs fired their Bofors at the U.S. planes they swedes got like a nickle a round, and when the U.S. fired theirs at the Jap planes the Swedes got another nickle. Check out some of those videos of U.S. ships firing at kamikazee. The tracers are probably 1 in 10. Imagine how many nickles that was.

If Japan didn't attack Hawaii and the Philipines Roosevelt would have been fucked. Fucker was hoping for something to drag the US into the war cause his policy was shit and he ran saying that he wouldn't involve the US in any Euro War.

this. people under look the merchant marine way too much. Japan was extremely reliant on other countries merchant marines to bring goods into Japan. The embargos and war crippled them from the onset and more islands further apart only stretches their resources further.

Back then: Fighting men = full head of hair
Now: Fat "men" that sit around in garrison playing on cellphones reciting the uniform code of military justice = bald headed

Our modern military. Can't win, haven't fought a decent foe since 1945, get our asses creamed by rice farmers, our ships get sunk by fishing boats

But we're "squared away", we can rat on our buddies at drop of a hat and can kiss platoon sergeant ass like no other.
