This report was written primarily for the use of the United States Stra- tegic Bombing Survey in the preparation of further reports of a more comprehensive nature. Any conclusions or opinions expressed in this report must be considered as limited to the specific material covered and as subject to further interpretation in the light of further studies conducted by the Survey. FOREWORD The United States Strategic Bombing Survey was establislied by the Secretary of War on 3 November 1944, pursuant to a directive from the late President Roosevelt. Its mission was to conduct an impartial and expert study of the effects of our aerial attack on , to be used in connection with air attacks on and to establish a basis for evaluating the importance and potentialities of air power as an instrument of military strategy for planning the future development of the United States armed forces and for determining future economic policies with respect to the national defense. A summary report and some 200 support- ing reports containing the findings of the Survey in Germany have been published. On 15 August 1945, President Truman requested that the Survey conduct a similar study of the effects of all types of air attack in the war against Japan, submitting reports in duplicate to the Secretary of War and to the Secretary of the Navy. The officers of the Survey during its Japanese phase were:

Franklin D'Olier, Chairman

Paul H. Nitze and Henry C. Alexander, Vice Chairmen

Directors Harry L. Bowman Frank A. McNamee, Jr. Monroe E. Spaght J. Kenneth Galbraith Fred Searls, Jr. Dr. Lewis R. Thompson Rensis Likert Theodore P. Wright Walter Wilds, Secretary

The Survey's complement provided for 300 civilians, 350 officers, and 500 enlisted men. The military segment of the organization was drawn from the Army to the extent of 60 percent, and from the Navy to the extent of 40 percent. Both the Army and the Navy gave the Survey all possible assistance in furnishing men, supplies, transport, and information. The Survey operated from headquarters established in Tokyo early in September 1945, with subheadquarters in Nagoya, Osaka, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki, and with mobile teams operating in other parts of Japan, the islands of the Pacific, and the Asiatic mainland. It was possible to reconstruct much of wartime Japanese military plan- ning and execution, engagement by engagement, and campaign by cam- paign, and to secure reasonably accurate statistics on Japan's economy and war production, plant by plant, and indu.stry by industry. In addition, studies were conducted on Japan's over-all strategic plans and the back- ground of her entry into the war, the internal discussions and negotiations leading to her acceptance of unconditional surrender, the course of health and morale among the civilian population, the effectiveness of the Jap- anese civilian defense organization, and the effects of the atomic bombs. Separate reports will be issued covering each phase of the study. The Survey interrogated more than 700 Japanese military, government, and industrial officials. It also recovered and translated many documents which not only have been useful to the Survey, but also will furnish data valuable for other studies. Arrangements have been made to turn over the Survey's files to the Central Intelligence Group, through which they will be available for further examination and distribution. m TABLE OF CONTENTS

In October 1943. therefore, the Kyushu Ordnance Co. (Kyushu Heiki K K) and the Kyushu Airplane Co. were established. During 1944, lesser plants of Kyushu Air- plane were constructed at Setaka, 35 miles south of Fukuoka, and Karatsu. 30 miles west-south- west of Fukuoka (Fig. 1). Another small plant was built at Meinohama, 5 miles west of Fuku- oka, in 1945. The Kyushu Airplane Co.'s manufacturing facilities (Table 1) therefore, consisted of two aircraft-assembly plants, one landing-wheel plant, and three lesser parts plants. The Army, Navy and Munitions Ministry did not exei-cise a strong influence over Kyushu, whose failure to meet production orders did not arouse criticism or stricter control. A par- allel may be drawn with Japan International Aircraft Industries, Ltd (Nippon Kokusai Koku
