| The major defense line that would serve as Japan's last major line of defense between the sea and the Japanese homeland during 1945 in the Kyushu area. This defense line would serve as one of the last major stands as Japan fought against the continuous assault from P-37s and B-29 Flying Fortresses that would cause destruction to Japan's major production line in the late part of the war. This would also serve as the prelude to one of Japan's last major iconic battle - Operation Ten-Go. | | The major defense line that would serve as Japan's last major line of defense between the sea and the Japanese homeland during 1945 in the Kyushu area.
