Bachelor of Aviation Management

So, deep into the second semester and doing good, a couple of As and a couple of Bs so far, with the first of three assignments and examinations per course done and marks returned (As for essays and Bs for online tests, which I hate), doing four courses and for the last of my Air Power exams I have this subject to do:

"The Pacific Air War – 7th December 1941 to 9th August 1945. The war in the Pacific against Japan was essentially the first 'air war' where Allied strategic policy was based on gaining air supremacy in order to bypass Japanese occupied areas and gain 'landing strips' from which to attack Japan. This included naval operations where aircraft carriers replaced battleships as the 'capital' ships of the fleets. In your essay, using examples from air battles or campaigns of the Pacific War to ILLUSTRATE your discussion, DESCRIBE how the Allies used air power and its CHARACTERISTICS to defeat the Japanese. [Remember the word count. The Pacific war covered vast distances over several years and involved many battles and campaigns, so you may need to narrow your focus to particular battle(s) /campaigns to get sufficient substance into your essay]."

Any takers?
 
wow...a detailed dissertation on that would be quite a challenge.
In a nutshell, you'd have to explain how Japan's Army and Navy types were designed for their environment and piloted by veterans versus Allied types that were designed for either European or North American battle concepts, piloted by un-tested pilots.

Y'know, what I've learned here from all you guys will invert everything we know about airpower and how the war was won...

Yes, Dave, it will be, it's word limited too, so I have to do it in 2,000 words... I think I have a solution though. I'll let you know how it goes. I obviously can't publish it because of copyright and stuff, but I'm gonna check with my tutor to ask if I can do what I have planned.

Thanks again, guys.
