Recognition

Hi,

Why was it that the identification of jap aircraft was so difficult for the british and Australian Forces early in the conflict 1941/42 ?

I have been reading the ORB of 459 sqdn and their pilots refered to jap aircraft several times as either Me109's or Ju88's. What caused this confusion ?

Any ideas

Alex
