[Milsurplus] Japan's Pearl Harbor Blunders

[Hue Miller]

I am aware that some planes didn't have radios, maybe only the flight leader
having a radio, and fighter pilots making use of hand signals, and fighter 
pilots sometimes removing radios on their own, as useless weight (low
powered single channel radios not unlike the Rangers we were talking 
about ), but I would think for a mission this important, they'd see to
radio communications. Maybe not.  -Hue

Hello Hue,

To save weight, many Japanese aircraft did not have any radios installed.
