what carrier fighter plane was the backbone of the japan imperial navy and air force?
There are several types of planes that formed the backbone of Imperial Naval aviation. The Zero was the fighter, the Val was the torpedo bomber and, the Kate was the level bomber. The downfall of Imperial aviation lies not in its planes but, in its inability to train new pilots to offset attritional losses in a protracted war, something Japan never really considered. After Midway many of her best pilots were dead.

MiG35 fighter plane - What does the MiG stand for?
It stands for Mikoyan-Gurevich, the founders of the Soviet design team that started the MiG 1
After Gurevich died in 1970, his name was dropped from the full name Mikoyan-Gurevich Design Bureau, but is kepted in the acronym

Yep, adding the links does take time. But at the same time it is good for people to do their own research, after all they might come to totally different conclusions over the same data (though in these cases I can't imagine how).
For Milgram (after Wikipedia) you can't go past this ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) podcast
Note the scary comments at the end, talking about the UNPUBLISHED research results. Family members torturing each other!
That's why we have laws and societal rules, to keep the 'dark side' under control. But it can disappear rapidly under the right circumstances. Once saw a nice respectable couple steal food off a pensioner in broad daylight in a supermarket (truck driver strike in the UK and the shops were getting low and panic set in). Intervening equalled a fight … which they lost.
Banality of evil indeed.
On a lighter note, Parkinson is one of my favourites (though with a hard edge of truth). Got all his books. His “colour of the bicyle shed” argument is both funny and true. I am repeatedly constantly amazed just how clueless nearly all senior management (public or private) really is. Now I've been around the Govt/corporate scene for more decades than I can remember. I can think of only half a dozen good managers and 2 good CEO's (one was excellent).
The rest ranged from very average to downright incompetent (sadly the majority I've come across).
But when you get into the police/security/'intelligence'/defence areas .. now that's where people seem to make a fetish out of incompetence (and don't get me started about finance). Now as always there are good/great individuals but the systems are so set in their ways that, at best, they manage to change things temporarily (or just hold the line for a while) .. but then it goes back to 'normal'.
The classic example is the USAF. Crap fighter planes in WW2 except the 'accident' the Mustang (which they didn't want at first), couple of a good jets early on, then rubbish after that (the F-105 .. shudder). Then Boyd and the 'fighter Mafia' got some very good stuff through (the famous teen series) basically by sacrificing their careers. Now they're back to expensive boondangles (the F-22) and rubbish (the F-35). The system reasserted itself.
Now they are into UAV's in a big way (as is everyone else) and daft talk of hypersonic planes.
Technical note: UAV's only work when you are against a vastly technologically inferior enemey. Great for taking out wedding parties. But a WW2 Spitfire would shoot them down. They are so slow and vulnerable that if you had the air defence systems that the UK had in the Battle of Britain they'd be obliterated.
As for 'intelligence'. Read RV Jones book “Most Secret War” (I met the guy once, a friend of my father) and how after the most amazing successes during the war … the system went straight back to its usual level of mind boggling stupidity after that.
I've used the the term 'the letters' before to summarise thme all (FBI/CIA/MI5/SIS/ASIO/TSA/ …..) but take them all together them just spell one word …. INCOMPETENCE.
But again this is simple human nature and how it applies to organisations. To make any of them successful you must:
(1) Keep them lean and mean.
(2) Open and transparent and accountable.
(3) With limited authority, with tough approval processes in place when they need extra authority.
(4) Small.
(5) Tightly focused on a clear aim(s).
(6) Externally set results measured.
Sadly, none of these apply to current security/defence/etc (or many other) organisations. So the (non/useless) results are totally predictable.
On the plane side, interesting to watch how lack of money has meant that Russia is now building far better planes than the West. Bit like the famous 'Skunk Works' in its hayday. Limited resouces = creativity. While unlimited resources = boondangles.
So got a new game for my droid. Skies of glory, ww2 fighter planes controled with phone motion. So much fun.highly recomended for android os
RT seriously do you believe after the first plane hit at 8:45 am a fighter can get up in the air for 1 hour and 15 minutes?
Comment as found at Movies and Film Blog, where I am a contributing author.Ryan Says: August 12th, 2009 at 9:51 am e Very well put, sir. We literally had the exact same discussion when some friends and I walked out of that movie. Did anyone else notice a weak attempt at a Star Wars themed movie? The Death Star, the fighter planes (or ships). Hell, even the bad guy wears a mask because of his grossly disfigured face. Anyway, the movie was pure, unmitigated crap. Thanks for the spot-on review
