Did the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force and the Imperial Japanese Navy Air
Force operate any of the same make of aircraft? It seems to me that that at
least with some combat aircraft the two services might have economically
ordered from the same production lines and saved some money and opened up some
factories for producing more of other types of aircraft?
