I am interested in the next article describing the history of the Navy. The IJN seemed to have more Decisive Victory in the Russo-Japanese War compared to the IJA. It is also true that the IJN took far more territory than the IJA. The difference being territory the IJA conquered could provide resources that Japan was desperately short on, while the nautical miles conquered by the IJN acted as a buffer and prevented America from getting to the Home Islands in a reliable way for a long time. I hope that you mention the Hōshō, the first purpose-built aircraft carrier in your History of the Navy, as it is a part of Naval Aviation history more Japanese aught to know about and be proud of.
Did you hear of the Bonin Islands Gap? During World War II, American submarines targeted Japanese oil tankers by exploiting the "Bonin Islands Gap" or the "Tokyo Express Route." This route was a critical maritime passage used by Japanese tankers to transport oil and supplies from the Dutch East Indies (present-day Indonesia) to Japan. The Bonin Islands, also known as the Ogasawara Islands, are a group of islands located to the southeast of Japan. The American submarines, particularly the U.S. Navy's submarine force known as the "Silent Service," took advantage of the Bonin Islands Gap due to its strategic significance in Japanese maritime logistics.
World War II. I did not know that story. I don't want to make a story about the war between the US and Japan because there are lots of detailed explanations. I realize that there are a lot of things I don't know while researching in the process of making a video.
@@thehistoryman6934 A lot of stuff related to Submarine Warfare is shrouded in mystery, even 80 years later. I just wanted to share as I thought you may find it interesting. I appreciate all the videos you do make, and the village series is very interesting
