Question

what event was planned to solve the problem identified by admiral nagano? A) attack on Pearl Harbor B) invasion of the Soviet Union C) dropping of the atomic bomb D) use of v-2 rockets against cities

Answer 1

The correct answer is Option A) Pearl Harbor

Osami Nagano was the Imperial Japanese Navy General Staff during the World War II.

The United States could have proven to be a huge problem for Japanese forces, due to the former's Pacific Fleet.

In order to completely handicap the United States Pacific Fleet, a plan was devised for a surprise attack on Hawaii's Pearl Harbor. From a tactical point of view, the plan was executed perfectly as the Japanese were able to destroy a large part of the America's Pacific Naval power.

Strategically, it was seen as a disaster as the US was, before the attack, keeping an isolationist policy in World War II and did not have intention of entering any world conflict.
