It enjoyed an unrivaled string of successes, shocking the world with the destructive raid on Pearl Harbor. In the months that followed, the fleet shattered US Navy, British, Australian, and Dutch naval forces while seizing their colonies. But defeat at the Battle of Midway ended Japans supremacy, and marked the first major turning point of Japans fortunes.</p><p>Packed with superb original artwork, maps, and 3D diagrams, this book explains what made the Combined Fleet the fighting force that it was, both in strengths and weaknesses. It examines the IJNs prewar and early war doctrines, which drove the fleets tactics and weaponry development. The IJN included some of the most powerful and innovative ships in the world, and the composition of the fleet, its ships and weapons are also detailed. But there were other factors at work that determined the Japanese Navys fate. These lesser-known factors, such as leadership, logistics, naval infrastructure, and Japans shipbuilding industry are also an important part of the story.</p><p>This book also gives an account and analysis of the IJNs performance in combat and where the Combined Fleet succeeded and failed, not only in the famous carrier actions of Pearl Harbor, the Coral Sea, Java Sea, and Midway, but also exploring lesser-known elements such as IJN amphibious forces and land-based aviation.</p>...(*_*)9781472856401_<p><strong>Launching Ospreys new Fleet series, this is a spectacularly illustrated, concise and comprehensive account of the Imperial Japanese Navys striking force at the height of its power.</strong></p><p>The Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) entered the Pacific War as one of the most formidable navies in the world, and its combat power was concentrated into one force, the Combined Fleet.
