RE: RHS Test 9A: 13 March 42 The Reduction of Soerabaja!

Post by el cid again »

The IJA did a minimal assault at Soerajaba. Having attacked with a division
and an armor "brigade" yesterday - both were too disrupted to be used without
penalty today - 25th Army HQ, a 15 cm artillery regiment, and two newly
arrived armor brigades did a minimalist assault today - successfully reducing
fortifications yet again. Soerabaja should fall tomorrow.

In this test of RHS 105 (a Japan Enhanced Scenario)- Yamashita's proposals to
form an armored corps were followed early. [Eventually they were implemented by
him, after the conquest of Malaya, but the corps never saw much action. By the
time one division did engage on Luzon, its 1942 equipment (some of it 1935 vintage)
was hopelessly outclassed. In 1942 in Asia - these units would have been demigods.
The light armor was ideal for the 10 standard main road bridges of the area. These
units were semi-independent - because IJA lacked motorized support organizations. So
they were outfitted with spare vehicles, relief drivers, and first, second and third
echelon maintenance in the parent organization. Yamashita's contribution was to call
for approximately 1:1 infantry to tank ratios - typically 4 battalions of each (one
of the infantry battalions was mechanized) - in addition to combined arms elements
(a motorized light artillery regiment and a motorized medium artillery battalion,
an engineer "unit" - an AAA "unit" - and a communications "unit" (units are two company
strength - sort of baby battalions) - and both brigade and divisional HQ. These
are very light armored units - and would not do well against the Soviet armored divisions
of the period (later disbanded in favor of armored corps - sort of giant divisions). But
the Soviets are not fighting in the East at this time.
