    Allied warships from the United States, Britain, and New Zealand bombarded Japanese factories and military facilities in the last weeks of World War II, heavily damaging several targeted factories and nearby civilian areas. A goal of the attacks was to draw out Japanese reserve aircraft into battle, but the Japanese did not attack the Allied bombardment forces, allowing the warships to avoid any damage.

    During the last weeks of World War II, warships of the United States Navy, the British Royal

    Navy and the Royal New Zealand Navy bombarded industrial and military facilities in Japan.
    Most of these bombardments involved battleships and cruisers which caused heavy damage to
    several of the targeted factories, as well as nearby civilian areas. A major goal of the attacks was
    to provoke the Japanese military into committing some of its reserve force of aircraft into battle.
    However, the Japanese did not attempt to attack the Allied bombardment forces, and none of the
    involved warships suffered any damage.
