The Battle of Japan refers to all air-naval, air-land and air-to air conflicts in and around the territory of the Empire of Japan during World War II. The Battle included an air defense programme, involving the Japanese Army Air Force and Air Service, and the use of fighter interceptors and anti-aircraft guns on both the outer and inner Japanese-owned islands.

These defensive operations over enemy territories were not carried out in Japanese occupied lands in the Indian and Pacific Oceans, Southeast Asia, Chinese-held lands or northern areas among the Japanese allies, such as the Wangching Wei Reformed Government, Mengchiang and Manchukuo.

The air operations were organized into several stages during the war:

February 1938 (Chinese Taihoku airstrike)
James Doolittle Operation during April 1942, amongst other minor air strikes
