Defeat of Japan: Twelve-Month Plan. Report J.I.C.

1 Aug 1943

Type of Ship Total Operationally Effective at one time BATTLESHIPS 10 8 REGULAR CARRIERS 9 6 ESCORT CARRIERS 6 6 8" CRUISERS 13 11 LIGHT CRUISERS 13 11 DESTROYERS 83 66 SUBMARINES 106 76 NOTE: Although the Japanese naval strength in 1945, as given above, will presumably have to be divided between the North and the Central Pacific, the actual distribution would depend on the magnitude of the threat in the North or South at any moment. It is likely that the strongest force would remain in the southern part of the area to meet the threats frat the Central Pacific.
