    THE IMPERIAL ELITE OF THE RISING SUN v3.0 A Global War 1936-1945 v3.0 Expansion Designed by Delája Schuppers Edited by Hans van der Leeuw 1. OVERVIEW Historical Board Gaming is proud to present the Imperial Elite of the Rising Sun (ERS) Expansion. The Elite Forces of the Japanese military existed mostly of the Special Naval Landing Forces (SNLF). At the start of the war the city of Yokosuka had an important military base and shipyard. The Yokosuka naval district was one of the regions where battleships and carriers were built. The naval base was also home of the three Yokosuka marine paratrooper units of the SNLF, known in Japanese as Rikusentai. Other Japanese Naval Districts also formed (and named) multiple Special Naval Landing Forces. This expansion enables you to take control of Japan’s elite forces, often entering the game at the historical date of entry in World War II. Some units have been formed two times in the Imperial Japanese Naval history. In this expansion the rules use either of two entry dates of these units to spread their entries between the Sino-Japanese War and the Pacific War. The 3D optional Type 2 Ka-Mi units give Yokosuka naval arsenal Japan an extra punch in late war amphibious attacks. Regular Marines and Paratroopers remain available for Japan, but the SNLF Units provide Japan with better options to defend their newly gained possessions. 2.

  • The Concrete Battleship Was Flooded, the Guns Drained of Recoil Oil and Fired One Last Time, the Colors
    The Iowan History letter Vol. 5 Number 2 Second Quarter, 2016 The Concrete Initially Fort Drum was planned as a mine control and mine casemate station. However, due to inadequate de- fenses in the area, a plan was devised to level the island, and then build a concrete structure on top of it armed with Battleship two twin 12-inch guns. This was submitted to the War Department, which decided to change the 12-inch guns to 14-inch guns mounted on twin armored turrets. The forward turret, with a traverse of 230°, was mounted on the forward portion of the top deck, which was 9 ft below the top deck; the rear turret, with a full 360° traverse, was mounted on the top deck. The guns of both turrets were capable of 15° elevation, giving them a range of 19,200 yards. Secondary armament was to be provided by two pairs of 6-inch guns mounted in armored casemates on either side of the main structure. There were two 3-inch mobile AA guns on “spider” mounts for anti-aircraft de- fense. Fort Drum in the 1930s Overhead protection of the fort was provided by an 20- Fort Drum (El Fraile Island), also known as “the con- foot thick steel-reinforced concrete deck. Its exterior walls crete battleship,” is a heavily fortified island situated at ranged between approximately 25 to 36 ft thick, making it the mouth of Manila Bay in the Philippines, due south of virtually impregnable to enemy naval attack.

  • Introducing a French Technological System: the Origin and Early History of the Yokosuka Dockyard1
    EASTM 16 (1999): 53-72 Introducing a French Technological System: The Origin and Early History of the Yokosuka Dockyard1 Takehiko Hashimoto [Takehiko Hashimoto received his Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University in 1991 for research on the history of aeronautical engineering. He now teaches the history of science and technology at the University of Tokyo.] * * * When we discuss the all-important aspect of technology in the modernization of Japan, reference to the Dutch or the British connection is usually in order.2 Before Japan opened its doors to the outside world at the end of the Edo period, contact with the West was mainly through the Dutch at Nagasaki. It was primar­ ily via this connection that Western writings, including military and industrial treatises, entered the country. After the Meiji Restoration in 1868, attention shifted from the Dutch to the more "advanced" British. Indeed, the new govern­ ment relied primarily on British engineering to build up a modern infrastructure. Central to this effort was the Ministry of Public Works, which hired several hun­ dred British engineers, some of whom served in the newly established Imperial College of Engineering, the precursor of the present School of Engineering of the University of Tokyo, where they taught-in English-a variety of engineering subjects and supervised senior theses-written in English.3 But there was also a French connection in modern Japan, though perhaps on a more limited scale. One of the most important links between France and Japan was found at Y okosuka, a city located about 60 kilometers south of Tokyo and now well known as the site of a United States Navy base.

  • THE FORMATION of HEAVY INDUSTRY One of the Processes of Industrialization in the Meiji Period
    THE FORMATION OF HEAVY INDUSTRY One of the Processes of Industrialization in the Meiji Period ANDO YOSHIO I The aim of this short paper is to draw attention to a number of problems connected with industrializationl in Japan by means of a consideration of the process of the establishment of heavy industry. The words " heavy industry ' ~re a common-sense term, but among the industries which are designated by this term the production-goods producing industries and the armaments industries differ completely in respect to their signiflcance for economic development. However that may be, the fact of the matter is that in Japan, in the course of the process of transplanting modern industry at the hands of the state which took place after the Meiji Restoration, the nurturing of heavy industry l The term " industrial modernization " may be broadly rendered as meaning the " industrial revolution." The words " industrial revolution " are used ih a variety of senses, but in this case they are used in the sense of the establishlaient of the factory system in the cotton spinning industry, or, in other words, the establishment of a mechanized cotton spinning industry. In passing we may give the following outline account of the pre.history of the industrial revolution in Japan. We may roughly describe the process of the modernization of industry in Japan as having proceeded along tw6 courses-the reorganization of traditional industrics and the transplantation of industries from the advanced countries. The former includes the type ex~fnplified in the

You must have JavaScript enabled in your browser to utilize the functionality of this website. The Japanese navy had closely monitored the progress of aviation of the three Allied naval powers during World War I and concluded that Britain had made the greatest advances in naval aviation, [7] they had also learned a good deal about naval aviation through their contacts within the Royal Navy. American losses were heavy; 2, personnel and bystanders were killed, 18 ships were damaged or sunk, and aircraft were destroyed. However, the Japanese had already launched a sixty-five aircraft strike against the American task force. Admiral Koga survived slightly less than a year as the Commander-in-Chief of Combined fleet. Yamamoto was convinced that war with the United States was inevitable, once the Japanese began any hostilities. American aircraft succeeded in sinking three of the six transports, but not before a total of 4, men had landed along with two-thirds of their supplies and equipment. By Japanese naval aviation had grown sufficiently in size and complexity that, it was necessary to consolidate the administrative organization of the air service. The second half of World War II saw the last battleship duels. Help Learn to edit Community portal Recent changes Upload file.

    '. ,' MEIJI ISHIN: . _ .,.-I RESTORATION AND' REVOLLTTION Edited by Nagai Michio and Miguel Urrutia THE UNITED NATIONS UNIVERSITY UNU Series on Social Transformation: I Major social transformations took place in non-European societies, such as those of Japan, China, Russia, and Mexico, during the last century. The UNU Project on Comparative Studies of Social Transformation looks into the interactions between different social, economic, political, cultural, and international environmental factors at work in these transformations and attempts to generate a new and synthetic conceptualization of such interrelationships. Meiji Ishin, the outcome of an international conference, is an examination of an important event in Japanese history from different theoretical standpoints by specialists from Japan, China, the Soviet Union, and the United States. The second volume of the Series on Social Transformation, now under preparation, will deal with the Mexican Revolution.
