Just a crazy thought I had at work last night...
...what if the Pacific War (Japan vs. The Known World) had been fought not in the mid-40s but in the mid-50s?
Say...the Japanese decide that in order to accomplish their goals they'll wait for a few years and build up their forces before striking against their enemies and 1954 is the year that all those conflicting problems come to a head.
What would the Japanese Navy and Air Force look like in the mid-50s? How would a post-European War world respond?
