How was the war in the pacfic different from the war in Europe?

Answer 1

The Japanese had very old weapons. In Europe, it was quite advanced technology but in Japan, the war was against a strong strong enemy. The battle in the pacific was not just harder, the Japanese were very good fighters in there homeland. The Japanese fell gradually though, because the army became so over confident that the government never thought about making more advanced weapons or advancing machinery. I mean there were barely ANY machine guns or sub machine guns going into mass production, the weapons were not very reliable. For example, to kill a tank coming in, the Japanese had to send in a guy with a small explosive to detonate the tank by setting off the explosive and KILLING himself. The Japanese also were very religious. And even though japan was very unadvanced, the soldiers had very little fear to die, they were told it was a HONOR to die even if it was a stupid way to. In conclusion, the battles of the pacific were fiercer and more airplane action than the Europe war.
