No, I agree that there plans to do so, and these plans were moving along before the A-bombs, but what I meant was that the actual use of these aircraft was debatable - at the level that the plans had progressed by the real end of the war, TAF and RN participation had been included. But these plans were never finalised, and MacArthur being MacArthur (who always wanted it be be completely US show), the inclusion of the RAF in operations is open to question.

He certainly vetoed the use of Indian Divisions in the invasion planning.
