Abstract
The British Army and the Royal Air Force (RAF) had mixed roles in Anglo-Japanese relations during the twentieth century. They had attitudes towards Japan ranging from racism to Japanophilism. Neither service shaped high policy before 1941, but both were central to war during the period 1941–45. More than any other British institution, the War Office tried to prevent that war and to prepare for it. The RAF and, more generally, British attitudes towards airpower were fundamental to Britain’s disastrous experiences when that war began.
