The Sino-Japanese war of 1937-1945 was the longest struggle of the Second World War. The Chinese Air Force was to suffer large losses during the whole conflict with Japan. It started with the Japanese aggression in July 1937 and soon accelerated into a full-scale war with the Chinese Kuomintang government.

This difficult relation with the Soviet Union lasted until 1941, when the USA became the main supplier of armament to China, which included the short-lived but famous US voluntary group
