The Survey's complement provided for 300 civilians, 350 officers, and 500 enlisted men. The military segment of the organization was drawn from the Army to the extent of 60 percent, and from the Navy to the extent of 40 percent. Both the Army and the Navy gave the Survey all possible assistance in furnishing men, supplies, transport, and information. The Survey operated from headquarters established in Tokyo early in September 1945, with subheadquarters in Nagoya, Osaka, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki, and with mobile teams operating in other parts of Japan, the
islands of the Pacific, and the Asiatic mainland.
It was possible to reconstruct much of wartime Japanese military planning and execution, engagement by engagement, and campaign by campaign, and to secure reasonably accurate statistics on Japan's economy and war production, plant by plant, and indu.stry by industry. In addition, studies were conducted on Japan's over-all strategic plans and the background of her entry into the war, the internal discussions and negotiations leading to her acceptance of unconditional surrender, the course of health and morale among the civilian population, the effectiveness of the Japanese civilian defense organization, and the effects of the atomic bombs.

Separate reports will be issued covering each phase of the study.

The Survey interrogated more than 700 Japanese military, government, and industrial officials. It also recovered and translated many documents which not only have been useful to the Survey, but also will furnish data valuable for other studies. Arrangements have been made to turn over the Survey's files to the Central Intelligence Group, through which they will be available for further examination and distribution.

THE CORPORATION AND

Introduction

ITS

IMPORTANCE IN THE AIRCRAFT INDUSTRY

facture of aircraft landing wheels was decided upon as a logical beginning.

The Kyushu Airplane Co. (Kyushu Hilcoki

K)yv&s, a significant producer of naval trainer aircraft and the foremost aircraft manu-

facturer on the island of Kyushu. During 1943 this firm produced about 12 percent of the total output of naval trainers but only three percent of the total combat planes. With the

reconnaissance seaproduction of the Type Kyushu Airplane Co., then plane, Jake, in 1941, known as the Watanabe Ironworks Ltd {WataK) started assembling comnabe Tekkosho

Production of another combat type, the Tokai patrol bomber, Lorna, began Subsequently, in June in September 1943. 1945 Kyushu completed the development of the first of a new pusher-type naval fighter. ShinOnly one aircraft of this type was comden. pleted prior to the cessation of hostilities. Plans to produce the twinjet aircraft, Kikka, were never fulfilled and no models of this Nakajimadesigned aircraft were ever produced by
bat aircraft.

Although Watanabe's previous connections had been almost entirely with the Japanese Navy, the Army was the first to place orders for the manufacture of landing wheels. The Navy soon followed suit, however, and finally, realizing his closer associations with this service, Watanabe in 1926 sought orders for the manufacture of complete aircraft with the Naval Air Headquarters. Despite repeated attempts, orders were not forthcoming until 1929 when Admiral Ando, then the chief of Naval Air Headquarters, offered the Navy's full cooperation in establishing a new plant in which Watanabe was to manufacture aircraft for the Navy. The site chosen for the new plant was at Zasshonokuma on the southeastern outskirts of Fukuoka.

Construction of the Zas.shonokuma plant (Appendix A) was completed late in 1930, and
production started in 1931. A new Watanabe ordnance plant was built adjacent to the Zasshonokuma aircraft plant and ordnance manufacture, on a larger scale than previously, was

Prior to the formation of the Kyushu company in 1943, this concern was known as the Watanabe Ironworks. It was founded in 1886 by Fukuo Watanabe. In 1919 this firm commenced the manufacture of torpedo tubes and parts for the Imperial Japanese Navy at its plant at Chiyomachi near Higashi park in the

As the Kyushu Airplane Co. had for many decades been well established in the Kyushu area, it had organized a reasonably effective group of subcontractors in the immediate vicinity of its assembly plants.

and in addition to the movement of equipment and personnel to available sites in the Fukuoka area, buildings were removed from the Zasshonokuma plant, and the construction of more permanent dispersal sites, both above and underground, was started.
This plan was put into effect during the first quarter of 1945. Due to the destruction by air attack of aircraft-manufacturing and air-depot facilities at Tachiarai (20 miles SE of Fukuoka) on 1 April 1945, the government ordered the Kyushu Airplane Co. to expedite the completion of its dispersal

By 1941, the annual output had reached 300 aircraft, and it was in this year that Kyushu completed its first combat aircraft, the Type reconnaissance floatplane, Jake.
