Japan's defensive mistake during the Doolittle Raid was underestimating the impact and capability of American air power. They believed their homeland was safe from air attacks, leading to a lack of adequate preparation and response to the bomber raid. This oversight allowed U.S. forces to strike key targets, boosting American morale and demonstrating Japan's vulnerability. Additionally, the raid forced Japan to divert resources to homeland defense, impacting their broader military strategy in the Pacific.
