@Tohoseiryu While the OP may be making some sweeping generalizations with that statement, I dare say there is a lot truth behind it:  the Luftwaffe had been battling the western Allies for controls over European skies with ever improving fighter aircraft produced in absurd quantities, and did not lose the war in the air until mid-1944.

The same cannot be said of the Japanese.

The Combined Fleet under Yamato to struggled to keep up with supplying aircraft to its carriers, leven before Midway, before losing most of its carrier air groups within that battle. When the Navy did assemble them again by '44, they were quickly shattered by superior Allied fighters and AA at the Marianas Turkey Shoot, rendering it's carriers useless for the remainder of the war.

As for its land based aircraft: if the successful raids unleashed upon Rabaul during' 42-'43 aren't indicative of their quality(or lack thereof), the destruction of Truk in early '44 via 8 US carriers should settle that once and for all.

Last but not least, compared to the sort of material we've been seeing on r/SWS lately, I frankly  think we can forgive the OP for such a minor offence.
