  1. Q&A: Assuming neither the US nor Japan have aircraft carriers during the entire war, what would World War II been like in the Pacific? Assume all other technologies / capabilities are the same like radar, land-based planes, etc. - just no aircraft carriers. What types of ships would have been built? How would the strategies and tactics change (for example, land-based planes would have been much more important and effective, submarines out of range of enemy land-based planes and enemy surface ships could operate safely on the surface, attacking Pearl Harbor would have been impossible, the Philippines and Singapore would probably have been able to fight off the Japanese, etc.).
