Japanese Likely to Hold Naval Superiority in War Outlook
A London Times summary by military correspondents argues Japan holds clear naval edge over Russia in battleships and cruisers, with superior dockyards and transport. It estimates Japan’s land forces at about 430,000 versus Russia’s roughly 180,000 in the Far East, plus stronger rail and coastal logistics for Japan to project power. The piece notes expertise and bravery are judged similar, but overall Japan is favored at sea and potentially in land operations if naval dominance is secured.
