Pretty bad. I mean for fucks sake, they got spanked by height of purges era Soviet troops.
They thought that elan and tight discipline would compensate for poor material factors. It didn't work for the French in WW1, and it didn't work for the IJA against anyone except the Chinese who were even worse off.

I honestly think they should be the one getting shit on instead of the Italians.

Well yeah. I mean, it's not like he had any actual control over what was going on in the war. He was a living god, but he was still a figurehead.

>>326658

Just.
Damn.

>Jap WWII weapons look like Brit's small arms
No.

>>326755
Yes.
Type 100 similar to STEN
Type 99 similar to Bren
They look fuckin similar
>>327151
i too can see the similarities BUT
loads of submachineguns have side mags
loads of mgs are top fed with mags

I feel the same way, senpai. The way Shinto relates to Buddhism, Daoism, and Confucianism is interesting. I see vague conceptual parallels between the development of the Church of England and organs of the Japanese state that propagated Shinto and updated forms of religion as Japanese identity solidified early in the Imperial period.
