    1. Japan’s “Complex” Military Tactics: TO THE EMPEROR! *Explodes!*

      Edit: This was supposed to be “Glory to the Emperor” but I brainfarted.

      And far greater industrial output, natural resources, R&D capacity, plus a completely undamaged infrastructure.

    3. Suicide bonsai charges, kamikaze pilots, and unguided intercontinental balloon bombs were…. certainly complex military tactics by technicality

    4. The nukes werent a factor in ending the war, in fact they were uneccesary.

      According to Nimmitz and Eisenhower

    5. Also america had code breakers and knew exactly what the Japanese were going to do. Thats the biggest cheat code out there

    6. This meme completely invalidates all USN struggles and efforts 3 years prior to hold the line and eventually push back Imperial Japanese into the wall with “haha I got two nukes”.

    7. I have no idea where op got this idea but USA has a lot better logistics and industrial output than imperial Japan

      When murdering scores of innocent people is the punchline to your joke, you know you’re telling a really disgusting joke.

    9. Complex military tactics don’t work if you don’t understand (or even have) logistics.

      Each branch of the imperial Japanese military hated each other and acted on their own on many occasions. To see that they where coordinated in any capacity is astounding. They all had the same goal to serve Japan and the emperor, but they would actively undermine each other. They somehow all managed to fight the war and manage the supply lines etc while having a decentralized authority structure, it’s wild.
