Aircraft standardization for Operation Downfall

Should the Fleet Air Arm have standardized on American aircraft for the invasion of Japan?

Yes if enough were available, because common aircraft would simplify logistics; in practice Britain could not obtain sufficient numbers.

A common American aircraft set would have eased spares, maintenance, and supply for the invasion of Japan. Production and allocation imposed the limit: Britain could not obtain enough American machines and still had to provide aircraft of its own. Coalition commonality would have simplified support, but scarcity made fielding enough aircraft the immediate concern. Standardization remained desirable only if it did not reduce available strength.
