I read that the USA cockade was changed because it could be confused with the Japanese one due to the red circle. But as you can see there is a difference in size between the two. How could someone mistake such a small circle for a Japanese circle? Couldn't he also realize that there was blue...
Yes. In Spanish, written English is pronounced differently from the original, which makes it difficult to identify the words when they speak it, and even more so if they speak quickly (as in an air chase), even though we use the same alphabet.
